Description
  • Aviva's support of the Global Compact principles are reflected in our existing company policies on Standards of Business Conduct, Human Rights, Environment and our suite of Workforce policies.

    Annually we report on our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme progress, which incorporates our conformity with both our internal policies on CSR and the principles of the Global Compact.

    Each year, Aviva's Group CEO highlights his personal, ongoing commitment to the Global Compact and Aviva's support of it, in his annual foreword to the company's CSR report.

    Details of practical actions which Aviva and its group of businesses around the world have taken to implement the Global Compact principles can be seen in the relevant sections of our CSR report under the headings of Standards of Business Conduct, Environment, Workforce and Human Rights. This is viewable in both the printed summary report (also downloadable as a PDF) or in the full online CSR report.
