Doing Business Responsibly
Society has increasingly high expectations for ethical behavior from global healthcare companies – expectations that very often go beyond what is legally required. We are taking steps to ensure our standards align with these expectations.
Ethics & Compliance
We are committed to creating a culture of integrity and trust through strict adherence to the Novartis Code of Conduct
Health, Safety & Environment
We strive to make efficient use of natural resources and to minimize the environmental impact of our activities and products
Corporate Responsibility Reporting
We are committed to transparent reporting – a central part of our UN Global Compact obligations. Our Annual Report serves as our primary reporting mechanism for corporate responsibility, and we have published a combined financial and CR report since 2000.
Our Corporate Responsibility Performance Report consolidates the company’s CR reporting, details our progress and demonstrates our commitment to be a leader in corporate responsibility.
The CR Performance Report is based on the Global Reporting Initiative G4 guidelines, with disclosure at “comprehensive” level, making it the first comprehensive level-report in the healthcare industry.
