Captured in the 2018 Citizenship Report released today, P&G
highlights the recent activities that define the Company as a force
for good and a force for growth.
“Our aspiration is clear. We want to be a force for good and
force for growth. We know that the more we integrate and build
Citizenship into how we do business, the bigger the impact we can
make with the people we serve, the communities where we live and
work, and the broader world that surrounds us. In turn, this helps
us grow and build our business,” said David Taylor, P&G’s
Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer.
The Company has made progress in all its Citizenship priority
areas and the highlights from the report include:
- Community Impact: This year, the
Company celebrated a milestone with its Children’s Safe Drinking
Water Program, distributing its 14 billionth liter of clean
drinking water to those who need it most. P&G’s brands played
an important role in helping those impacted by natural disasters
such as the hurricanes Harvey, Irma, Maria and Florence, and our
Tide Loads of Hope program washed more than 3,800 loads of laundry
to help bring a sense of normalcy to those suffering the effects of
natural disasters.
- Diversity & Inclusion:
P&G sparked important conversations around equality with two
award-winning films: “The Talk” about racial bias and “The Words
Matter” about LGBT+ inclusion. Its brands launched multiple
advertising campaigns that include positive portrayals of diverse
families and individuals. Internally, the Company introduced
additional benefits to modernize employee parental leave policies
as part of its Flex@Work program.
- Gender Equality: As a leader in
using its voice to call attention to gender equality, P&G
created a thought-provoking new exhibit, “Women at Work: Myth vs.
Reality,” which challenges outdated thinking about women in the
workplace. It also partnered with Sesame Workshop and the Muppets
to set new expectations about gender for boys and girls around the
world and introduced a range of new brand advertising campaigns
championing equal voice and equal representation for all
individuals.
- Environmental Sustainability: In
April, the Company announced ambitious sustainability goals for
2030. Having already achieved many of its 2020 goals for climate,
water and waste, P&G’s Ambition 2030 framework focuses on where
the Company can make the biggest positive difference – with its
brands, supply chain, society and employees. The Company has
renewed its focus on plastic waste and many of its brands are
stepping up to increase the recyclability of packaging and use more
recycled material.
“For more than 180 years, the Company has been touching and
improving lives. It’s who we are. It’s what we do. And it motivates
us to do more and be a force for good and a force for growth in the
world,” said Taylor.
The Executive Summary, a 24-page overview of the progress and
stories is available online as well as a detailed version of the
report. David Taylor’s video discussing the progress on Citizenship
can be found online here. P&G published a Sustainability Report
annually since 1999 but expanded it beginning in 2016 to include a
more comprehensive overview of the Company’s Citizenship
priorities.
