Philanthropy is a cornerstone of West's culture. It anchors our purpose of standing by the side of our customers to help make a difference in our global community.

At West, we actively foster an inclusive and collaborative culture for our team members where different views and perspectives are welcomed and valued. We are convinced that this approach brings forth innovation, learning and growth for our team members on a global basis.

West recognizes its responsibility to operate with integrity and to proactively identify potential misconduct. We hold ourselves accountable to the highest standards of quality, integrity and respect for our team members, our shareholders, our customers, and the patients we jointly serve.

We are proud to announce that our 2019 Corporate Responsibility Report has been published and is now live on the West website. In its fourth year, West’s 2019 Corporate Responsibility Report provides insight into West’s initiatives in Environmental Sustainability, as well as five other impact pillars – Health and Safety; Quality; Compliance and Ethics; Diversity and Talent; and Philanthropy.

At West, we are committed to attracting and retaining a diverse and inclusive workforce. We understand that diversity is key to our success and know that a diverse workforce leads to greater innovation, more opportunities, better access to talent and stronger business performance. We encourage a culture of mutual respect, where everyone feels valued and respected and can bring their authentic self to work every day, helping to foster an environment that enables our team members to stay energized, focused and committed to doing their best.

In the final installment of our blog series on corporate responsibility, we are focusing on quality. This topic is at the forefront of all we do at West. After all, we are ultimately in business to serve the patients who use our products – and those patients are counting on us to deliver those products with the highest level of quality possible. We will not compromise on our commitment to quality.
