A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH TO SUSTAINABILITY GOALS

Our approach to sustainability is comprehensive and global and encompasses the products we make and how we make them, our facilities, our colleagues and our communities.

Currently, we are focusing on our Sustainability 2020 Goals and marking progress driven by our Sustainability 2015 Goals. The Bristol-Myers Squibb Sustainability Goals are updated every five years to align with the company’s strategy and with programs across the organization that support research and development, patient access, our employees, our supply chain and the environment.

We’ve aligned our corporate and social responsibility efforts with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals to further strengthen the company’s business foundation, enabling an even stronger platform for future growth through opportunities to meet patient needs and stakeholder expectations.
