By being transparent and engaging with a wide variety of stakeholders – from customers, governments and NGOs to suppliers, employees and investors – we are able to identify issues and opportunities and gain insights that we use to refine our supplier sustainability strategy. We then translate this strategy into dedicated programs to help our suppliers improve their social and environmental performance.
We have strategic programs to help our suppliers improve their sustainability performance, thus supporting our ambition to create a healthier, more sustainable world. These cover the assessment of supplier sustainability performance, management of regulated substances, conflict minerals, greening the supply chain, improvement of working conditions, and responsible sourcing initiatives.
Reflecting our commitment to improving peoples' lives, we engage with our suppliers to promote acceptable working conditions, environmentally responsible management.
We have acted to make sure we are not helping finance conflict through the metals present in our products.
As a part of our commitment to health, safety and the environment, it is vitally important that our suppliers comply with all relevant requirements regarding the use of regulated substances.
We motivate suppliers to disclose their environmental performance, including carbon emissions, and help them find a win-win green solution.
