We are committed to operating a responsible business

Our Sustainability and Social Impact strategy reflects the issues that are most important for our business, our stakeholders and our value chain. We focus on our three most material issues – improving our use of resources and creating circular business models, helping eradicate digital poverty, and achieving net zero emissions by 2040 – and have put in place long term, ambitious and transformational objectives aligned to these.

We report our progress against these three material issues alongside updates on how our work is underpinned by a strong foundation of responsible sourcing, corporate governance and being a good employer.
