Zero Impact From Operations

We will pursue zero environmental impacts in our operations globally* (Scope 1 & 2). To achieve this, we have set these goals:

Convert to renewable electricity by FY2030

Continually improve waste recycling rates year over year

Meeting these targets is challenging, and we are focused on continuous improvement, regular monitoring, and implementing initiatives to minimize our environmental impact.

Provide a Safe & Attractive Work Environment

We are dedicated to building a culture of transparency and trust. We strive to live by behaviors prioritizing people and making a great workplace.

People First is the first of our three strategic priorities. We embrace 9 People Fundamentals that form the backbone of our culture. They help us nurture and expand trust, establishing a unified approach to how we show up, how we interact, and how we lead across the organization. By leading with purpose and meaning, we aim to drive our business forward by attracting and retaining talent.

Providing a safe and healthy working environment for our employees is central for us. We comply with applicable occupational health and safety regulations, designed to prevent workplace incidents.
