Atlassian
Sustainability Report
We’re building a 100-year company together. Atlassian’s seventh Sustainability Report details our progress from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025.
Planet
We've committed to achieve net zero by 2040.
We believe in making long-term climate progress (together).
Our highlights
Mitigating supplier-related emissions is a game of patience and persistence. Out of our top 15 suppliers by emissions without science-based targets that we've engaged, 10 have now set or committed to setting science-based targets, either as part of their agreement with Atlassian or directly with the Science Based Targets initiative.
Where we fell short
Atlassian’s rapid growth and increased headcount have challenged our efforts to lower business travel emissions, which rose 13% this past year. To course-correct, we adopted a plan for Atlassian’s first internal carbon fee, intended to incentivize emissions reduction and directly fund the purchase of Sustainable Aviation Fuel certificates.
Where we’re going
Atlassian’s guiding star remains the same: net zero by 2040. But our approach may change as we navigate evolving global regulations and AI’s impact on emissions. We’ll also need to adapt to meet evolving guidance from frameworks like the Science Based Targets initiative.
People
At Atlassian, our people set us apart.
We are dedicated to building an inclusive workplace and ensuring every Atlassian feels a sense of belonging.
Our highlights
We streamlined our new-hire onboarding program by leveraging our own AI-powered tools. “Newlassians” now have NORA, a Rovo agent we developed that successfully answered nearly 10,000 questions and boasts the most weekly active users among all agents within Atlassian.
Where we fell short
Managers have expressed uncertainty about how to support employees with disabilities and want to make sure their team members have comprehensive assistance. We established accommodation resources in each region. These resources ensure that employees with short-term or long-term medical conditions or disabilities have equitable access to the support, tools, and adjustments they need to fully contribute and thrive in their roles.
Where we’re going
We’re eyeing new ways to enhance employee engagement and experience, including through the physical work spaces we design and build. We’ll also incorporate AI to help deliver meaningful connections that support modern, distributed ways of working.
Customers
Transparency and accountability to our customers and stakeholders underpin our approach.
We also look to the Atlassian values and UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights.
Our highlights
We embedded our responsible technology review process into the development lifecycle, resulting in over 100 assessments of internal, external, and third-party AI products. These reviews helped us fine-tune how we are developing and deploying AI technology consistently with our Responsible Technology Principles.
Where we fell short
While we have working groups focused on human rights topics, bringing executive oversight into our governance model remains a gap that we aspire to close.
Where we’re going
We’re investing deeper in human rights areas like due diligence. We’ll also continue to optimize responsible tech reviews and training for scale and simplicity. These advancements will set us up for future compliance with regulations like the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive.
Community
The Atlassian Foundation is on a mission to unleash the potential of social impact teams.
We empower teams to change lives through education.
Our highlights
We celebrated the 10-year anniversary of Pledge 1%, a movement we co-founded. We continued to make good on our commitment, including US$12 million in donations through the Atlassian Foundation and free or discounted Atlassian tools for over 12,500 nonprofits.
Where we fell short
The frequency of extreme weather events continues to intensify, and Atlassian’s reactive response to emergency grant making hasn’t been scaling to meet the community needs of today. Moving forward, we will roll out a proactive approach that invests in recovery and building resilience.
Where we’re going
With the Sustainability and Atlassian Foundation teams coming together under Legal, we have the opportunity to set a new strategic direction: one that better deploys the full power of Atlassian to take bold bets toward addressing the challenges of the next decade.
