Contribution to the United Nations Global Compact

As the primary international organization implementing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the United Nations (UN) has influenced our sustainability strategy for over 30 years. We partner with the UN and integrate these goals into our growth strategy. 

 

United Nations Global Compact

Our international sustainability partnerships stretch back to 1991, when we became the first company in our sector to sign the Sustainability Charter of the International Chamber of Commerce. Since 2008, we have been a signatory of the UN Global Compact and CEO Mandate; recognized as one of the Global Compact LEAD companies; and joined the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Taskforce in 2019. As an UNGC Labour and Decent Work Impact sponsor, we seek to contribute to the development of a consensus within the business community on the key principles of decent work, such as the definition of a "living wage". We aim to ensure a living wage for all our employees by employees by 2025 and to expand its implementation in our supply chain.
