As an industry-leading organization, we strive to leverage our global reach to do good by our people, our customers and the communities in which we live, work and have a daily impact.
To hold ourselves accountable to the high standards of which we aspire to meet and exceed, we formed the ESG Steering Committee in 2020. By establishing a robust governance framework implemented through key Labcorp leaders across the organization, our strategic direction is more purposeful and focused on key ESG topics of importance to all our stakeholders and where we can have the greatest impact.
While still in its relatively early stages, we can already see the positive impact and meaningful changes we set out to make in the world as outlined throughout this year’s corporate responsibility report.
As a company, our mission is to improve health and lives. Our commitment to ESG is an important component of that mission. Looking ahead, our near-term efforts will prioritize further establishing metrics and milestones to drive progress as well as on key initiatives in ESG through our science-based targets process, as well as strengthening and solidifying our diversity and inclusion framework and priorities.
Ultimately, the positive impact we can make as a company stems from our people. I know our employees are working tirelessly and with tremendous dedication to do good for the world where it matters most.
