BRIDGEWATER, N.J. / Jun 15, 2023 / Business Wire / Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE: AMRX) (“Amneal” or the “Company”) today announced the release of its third annual (2022) Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Report. This 2022 report provides a look at our progress across our ESG focus areas, including updates to our people data and sustainability programs.
New this year, the report is mapped to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) and highlights our contributions in support of Goal 3: Good Health and Well-Being. With a primary focus on addressing critical health needs via innovative and affordable medicines, Amneal is responsibly living its purpose of making healthy possible for patients, communities, and the planet.
“Since our founding in 2002, Amneal has always been a purpose-driven company deeply focused on patients. As we diversify and expand our business, we are not only elevating the value we deliver for mankind, but we’re also elevating our commitment to ESG. Our long-term sustainability roadmap is focused on expanding affordable access to essential medicines through our vast product portfolios in complex generics, injectables, specialty and biosimilars,” said Chirag Patel, Co-CEO and Co-Founder.
“To truly make healthy possible, we believe that we must also support a healthy planet, so we are strengthening our rigor in environmental responsibility by tracking our global carbon footprint. We are pleased with the incremental improvements we are making across our operations each year and will continue taking action to ensure we’re responsibly executing our purpose,” said Chintu Patel, Co-CEO and Co-Founder.
Key 2022 ESG Achievements
- Affordability and Accessibility: Saving patients over $10 billion* in the U.S with our generic and biosimilars medicines. Hosting our first-ever global employee volunteering event focused on health and hygiene kit-making and celebrating our 10-year partnership (20+ million doses of Amneal medicine donated to date) providing medicines to underserved and uninsured patients with Dispensary of Hope.
- Environmental Stewardship: Creating and convening a Global Environmental Working Group (EWG) to address the climate crisis and working toward aligning our disclosures with the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial. Creating an initial manual Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions inventory, onboarding a carbon accounting vendor and initiating the rollout of a global Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) system.
- Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging: Launching an Employee Resource Group (ERG) pilot program in the U.S. to provide a platform for employees to connect and collaborate around shared interests and identities. Conducting an insightful workshop on the importance of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) for senior leaders, and launching our Amneal Listens employee listening and engagement strategy
- Good Governance: Appointing our second female Board member with an extensive track record in quality, regulatory and policy, aligned with our priority on fostering a Board that reflects expanded experiences and perspectives.
