SUSTAINABILITY

Creating Transformational Change

 

Sustainability at Ansell

"Adopting the pillars of human rights, community, environment and governance has yielded significant progress on the Company’s sustainability journey. We will continue to invest resources to create positive transformational change within Ansell, building sustainability into our business strategy and in the way we engage our stakeholders, including employees, customers, suppliers and communities. 

We are committed to creating positive transformational changes in human rights, community, environment and governance at Ansell, even as our business continues to grow. The Company has been actively working in these areas for a number of years on innovative strategies to consume less energy, water and space per unit of output, support the communities we live and work in, and ensure ethical behaviour and a safety culture are top-of-mind for our diverse workforce."

Magnus Nicolin, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer

Human Rights

A Culture of Safety and Integrity

In accordance with global human rights, labor standards, country law and Ansell values, we support and respect the rights of our employees and communities in which we operate. We continuously strive to maintain world-class occupational safety and health performance, keeping our coworkers safe on the job, whether that means a manufacturing facility in Malaysia, an office in Belgium, or a distribution center in the United States. As a safety company, we particularly want to take care of the people who take care of us – from our valued coworkers to stakeholders in our supply chain; from our customers to the communities in which we operate.

Governance

Integrity, Transparency and Fairness

Ansell continues to make progress with strategies that will grow our business in a sustainable manner, based on the principles of integrity, transparency and fairness. Recognizing the growing importance of sustainability issues, the Board has widened the brief of its Risk Committee, and renamed it as the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Risk Committee. Our governance framework ensures the long-term health of our company, and we will continue to engage with our stakeholders to understand and respond to issues that are important to our employees, customers, investors, distributors, suppliers, regulators, CSR rating agencies, and advocacy groups.
