Promega's Global Sustainability Program
Program Overview
In a changing world, we become increasingly aware that some things are best
unchanged. The global interest for sustainable practice is shaping new
expectations in business. Promega Corporation has historically taken a balanced
approach in maintaining a high quality in our products, our purpose and our
people.
This year we took a look at ourselves through the triple-bottomline filter to
examine our work in the context of sustainable practice. We knew we would have
strong start with the existing business, community and employment policies that
we have always practiced. But we wanted to fairly capture our practice against
the measures used around the world. As more countries are standardizing
sustainable requirements, we wanted to both provide easy access to our practices
and, quite frankly, examine how we might improve our own performance.
Last year, we provide our first benchmark
Global Sustainability Report. Our due diligence in environmental
practice, community contribution and employee support are well documented. But
then again, we start with an advantage over some industries. In Life Sciences,
the nature of our work centers on bettering human life. Even so, breakthroughs
that benefit are countered with compromised processes somewhere else. With
diligence like this for constant improvement in sustainable practice, we can
compromise less and contribute more to a better life for future generations.
