Medela has announced the global expansion of its Corporate Social Responsibility Program- Medela Cares. The priority of the program is classified into three key aspects – people, planet and society, in an effort to drive global change where Medela has the greatest impact among employees, customers and partners.
Annette Brüls, CEO of Medela worldwide affirms that “We are excited to introduce new initiatives and reaffirm our commitment to parents, patients and babies, and health care professionals by expanding Medela Cares and joining the United Nations (UN) Global Compact initiative. Our dedication to being responsible stewards drives us to ensure we develop not only sustainable products, but also sustainable programs that support our global community.”
As part of this initiative, Medela has also associated with the United Nations (UN) Global Compact, a voluntary leadership platform to align their operations and strategies with the UN’s ten universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption, and to take action in support of UN goals and issues embodied in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
