Safety, Quality, and Health & Well-being

The safety and health & well-being of our employees remains our top priority. As we journey toward becoming a company focused on Health, Nutrition & Bioscience, quality has been accorded the same degree of scrutiny as safety. Volatility in the world around us resulted in additional challenges, making this priority more important than ever. In 2022, as we took next steps in implementing hybrid working, we continued to provide safe and healthy workplaces for our people – whether in our offices, laboratories, plants, or homes.

Global developments in 2022 had a profound impact on our people throughout the year, from higher levels of personal uncertainty to increased professional workloads and pressures. These challenges were compounded by higher turnover rates and difficulties in hiring new employees. In turbulent times like these, we maintain a continuous focus on the safety, health, and well-being of our employees. The attention for safety & health focuses on three areas to ensure that they are embedded across our organization.
