OUR 2022 PROGRESS
SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY 2025
For Genomma Lab Internacional, sustainability is a tool that allows us to generate shared value for all our stakeholders and at the same time manage our risks along our value chain, while being congruent with our corporate purpose - "Iconic solutions for your health and well- being".
During 2020, we consolidated the Global Sustainability Committee, which is led by the Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors, as well as the Chief Executive Officer, and is comprised of key leaders from strategic areas. Following the creation of this Committee, an action plan was drawn up to address the priority material issues for the Company and our stakeholders in terms of sustainability in the short, medium and long term, called "Our 2022
Progress".
This is a roadmap that defines our environmental and social goals, considering 10 action areas based on our business model and aimed at contributing to the fulfillment of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as goal number three - Health and Well-being and goal number 12 - Responsible Production and Consumption.
