ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT AT PZ CUSSONS
It’s in the DNA of PZ Cussons to be a force for positive change.
We recognise our impacts on the planet and society, take responsibility for addressing these impacts and work in partnership with our suppliers, customers and communities to make a difference.
Our Company’s purpose guides us: For Everyone, For Life, For Good, which helps us consider the consumers, customers and communities we serve, our employees, and the planet when we make decisions as a business.
Our Environmental and Social Impact framework, which we call ‘Better for All’, aligns with our purpose, and our sustainability strategy helps everyone in the business, whatever their role, understand how they can help us achieve our targets. The framework is also supported by the KPIs we have set. A Groupwide materiality assessment validated and determined the areas within the framework we focus on.
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals And Global Compact
The 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their associated targets offer a blueprint for achieving a more peaceful and prosperous world by 2030. To deliver the SDGs, businesses must focus their efforts where their actual and potential impact is greatest. In line with this, we have identified the SDGs where we can have the most significant impact as a business.
We strengthened our commitment by joining the UN Global Compact, the largest corporate sustainability initiative in the world. By becoming a participant, we have committed to aligning our strategy and operations with the UN’s Ten Principles in human rights, labour, environment, and anti-corruption. We’ll also be submitting an annual Communication on Progress report.
