We seek to create value beyond the impact of our medicines by embedding sustainability into everything we do – from the lab to the patient. We are committed to contributing to a more sustainable future for people, society, and the planet.

As a global organisation, we are committed to operating ethically and responsibly. We are helping to tackle the biggest challenges of our time, such as climate change, biodiversity loss, health equity, and health system resilience. We believe these challenges are interconnected and require collaboration within and beyond the health sector. Through science-based solutions, we believe we can drive positive change and a healthier future.

As mentioned by our CEO, Pascal Soriot:
“We are also investing in climate and nature action, and maintain a leading role in industry efforts to address the effects of climate change and accelerate the delivery of net-zero sustainable healthcare, while improving health outcomes and decreasing our impact on the planet—reducing carbon emissions, water consumption, and waste generation. Our sustained progress in reducing greenhouse gas emissions has enabled a 77.5% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions from our 2015 baseline.”

For example:

90.5 million people reached through our access to healthcare programmes;

AA rating in the MSCI ESG Ratings assessment;

Ranked in the top five of the Access to Medicine Index 2024;

We cultivate an inclusive and diverse work environment where employees can thrive;

By the end of 2024, we had successfully transitioned 63% of our vehicle fleet (over 20,000 vehicles) to battery electric vehicles (BEVs); among other achievements.
