Our responsibility to the planet

As part of the world’s largest healthcare company, we recognise our responsibility – which stretches beyond industry regulations – to sustain natural resources and care for the planet. To do this, we push to continuously reduce our environmental impact and are committed to renewable and clean energy.

A healthy planet and a healthy community go hand in hand, and sustainability is about managing our personal, business and societal impacts to ensure better outcomes for patients and society.

Our commitment to protecting the environment and natural resources is enshrined in Our Credo, the set of values that guide decision-making across our company.
