On behalf of our 14,000 employees across the globe, I am pleased to reaffirm PerkinElmer’s
commitment to the UN Global Compact’s ten principles and, in particular, addressing our environmental footprint, human rights, labor, anti-corruption.I am pleased to share that PerkinELmer continues to advance our corporate social responsibility program (CSR), aligning our goals and activities around the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). This framework serves as a guide for us to help build a better world for people and our planet for years to come and connects to our mission: Innovating for a healthier world anchors all we do and is rooted in everything from our products and processes to our methods and mindset. Our CSR program consists of three pillars: governance, sustainability and culture, community & our people.
In this annual Communication on Progress, we describe our actions to continually improve the integration of the Global Compact and its principles into our CSR program and our business strategy, culture, and daily operations. We also commit to share this information with our stakeholders utilizing our primary channels of communications.
I am incredibly proud of PerkinElmer’s mission and purpose of making life better, driven by remarkable people dedicated to developing innovative technologies to address both customer and societal needs and becoming even better sustainability stewards in the communities in which we live and work. We look forward to continuing the progress on our commitments as a global citizen; they are ingrained in us as our business itself helps both preserve our environment and ensure people can live longer, healthier lives.
