Recognising needs. Creating possibilities

Sustainability

Creating lasting value for a healthier tomorrow

The challenges facing society today are closely connected. Health, environmental sustainability, social wellbeing, and economic progress all influence one another, making it essential to approach them as part of a broader picture. We believe that recognizing these connections is key to building a stronger future for our communities, our business, and the world around us.

Our commitment to sustainability shapes the way we operate. We aim to make a meaningful difference for people affected by serious health conditions while also supporting healthier communities and a more sustainable society. We do this by investing in scientific innovation, promoting equal access to healthcare, reducing our impact on the environment, and creating long-term value for our stakeholders.

We are committed to fostering a diverse, respectful, and inclusive working environment where people can contribute and grow. By working closely with patients, colleagues, partners, and communities, we continue to learn, improve, and turn our commitments into action. Through responsible and ethical decisions, we strive to help build a healthier, more equitable, and sustainable future for everyone.

Our sustainable approach

The priorities outlined below have been established through a comprehensive double materiality assessment aligned with the requirements of the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). This process was designed to determine the environmental, social, and governance matters that are most significant to ALL. The assessment considered both how sustainability-related issues may influence ALL’s financial performance, risks, and opportunities, as well as the effects that ALL’s activities may have on people, society, and the environment. By considering these two perspectives together, ALL can focus its sustainability efforts on the areas where they can have the greatest relevance and impact.

Scientific innovation

We advance science and embrace new knowledge, tools and partnerships to design, develop and deliver differentiated solutions that help people living with severe diseases live their best possible lives and meet both patient and societal needs. 

Equitable access to medicines

In the countries where we operate, we are focused on ensuring that all patients who need our medicines have access to them in a way which is viable for patients, society and ALL. We develop social business approaches to provide access to quality care and medicines for those who need them.

Patient engagement

We ensure a continuous dialogue and consistent and systematic engagements with patients, their caregivers and healthcare professionals to understand their needs, preferences and priorities to inform our decision-making and co-create solutions end-to-end along the value chain.

Health of the planet

We are well aware that our activities have an impact on the environment. We therefore aim to develop and deliver medicines in the most environmentally sustainable way possible. To live up to our goals, we have set bold targets to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions, water and waste consumption through our operations, including those of our partners.

Health, Safety & Wellbeing

We believe that all people deserve respect and dignity and that the workplace should be a safe, collaborative, respectful, equitable and inclusive environment, where everyone is encouraged and supported to grow, learn, and achieve their highest potential.

Inclusion

We foster a culture of inclusion by welcoming different perspectives, respecting every voice and working to make sure every colleague feels valued and empowered.

Ethical Business Practices

We live our ethical principles of trust, integrity, care, transparency and accountability to strive and pledge full respect of all our stakeholders. Our commitment extends to upholding applicable laws and regulatory requirements to ensure that we are compliant and ethical and protect the communities, patients and colleagues we work with.
