Focusing Forward, Sustainably

Corporate Responsibility is fully integrated into our business model, the policies that govern our business, and reflects our commitment to sustainable growth.

Our Approach

At Shyft, our commitment to sustainability principles is more than just a business imperative—it is a collective responsibility. As a leading provider of purpose-built technology, we advance sustainability through three key pillars: environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and governance excellence.

Our ESG Pillars

In 2022 and 2023, Shyft formalized its sustainability strategy to reflect decades of business practices that have embraced the value of sustainability and the initiation of our electric vehicle strategy. We embedded environmental and social priorities within our business operations to promote sustainability and increased transparency. We gathered stakeholder perspectives on these topics from a variety of sources, including disclosure frameworks, such as the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), and U.N. Sustainability Goals (SDGs) Standards. In 2024, we formalized our strategic priorities to reflect our longstanding commitment to sustainability and the launch of our electric vehicle initiative, integrating them into our operations, promoting transparency and Operational Excellence. The ten tenets of our strategy include:

  • Protecting the EnvironmentProtecting the Environment

Sustainability Reports

The annual Sustainability Report is designed to consolidate and summarize our work on sustainability ESG topics that are important to our business and stakeholders.  This report, along with our commitment to provide future updates and communications, clearly demonstrates Shyft’s values of Honesty and Integrity, Accountability, Trust, and Performance Excellence.
