The compact is a pledge to develop and exercise corporate responsibility programs and to begin increasing disclosure of the company’s sustainable business practices.
(Batesville, Ind.) - Hillenbrand Inc. Has signed the United Nations Global Compact.
By signing, the Batesville-based company takes a voluntary pledge to develop and exercise corporate responsibility programs and to begin increasing disclosure of the company’s sustainable business practices.
Hillenbrand is also committing to act in support of UN goals, joining nearly 10-thousand companies who are pledging to align business strategies to universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption.
"As a global diversified industrial company, we are committed to pursuing a leadership role and fulfilling our duty to improve the social and environmental impacts of our activities," said Joe Raver, President & CEO, Hillenbrand. "We're proud to publicly commit to making the Global Compact an integral part of Hillenbrand's sustainability strategy. We believe that this path will contribute to long-term value creation for our stakeholders."
Raver added that being responsible corporate citizens is embedded in the mission and core values at Hillenbrand.
So much so, that Hillenbrand took measures to help strengthen neighboring communities by creating a community outreach program in 2016, called One Campaign. The program develops strategic partnerships in the communities in which they operate to meet present-day while working to benefit future generations.
"Through One Campaign, we have donated time and money to community organizations working to overcome societal challenges such as food insecurity and provided basic school supplies and educational materials for students in need to help them achieve a quality education. We have also developed a framework so that students can achieve a pathway to future careers at Hillenbrand and our operating companies," said Raver.
