Responsibility - Pharmanovia

Our commitment

At Pharmanovia, we are committed to making medicines available for the benefit of patient health globally. We do this in line with the highest ethical standards and in full compliance with all laws. Acting responsibly, with integrity and with respect is at the heart of everything that we do and serves society best, as well as being essential for our continued sustainable growth and the long-term success of our Company.

Compliance

Fair competition is essential not just for the pharmaceutical industry but also for the wider welfare of society. The directors, senior management and employees of Pharmanovia are strongly committed to ensuring compliance with antitrust laws. Pharmanovia operates a competition law compliance programme, including appropriate training for all employees and senior management. Adherence to the programme is monitored by the Pharmanovia Board.

We are committed to respect effective governance rules for total transparency.

Anti-bribery and corruption

Pharmanovia is committed to the highest standards of ethical conduct and integrity in its business activities in the UK and overseas. Our company does not tolerate bribery or corruption in our operations and our Anti-Bribery Policy explicitly states expectations for all colleagues.

Environmental impact

Pharmanovia is committed to protecting and where possible enhancing the environment by reducing its environmental impact, preventing pollution, mitigating and adapting to climate change and a low carbon future.

We recognise the importance no matter how small, of the impact of our activities on the environment and that there is a need to constantly consider ways in which we can conserve energy and minimise waste in all activities that we undertake.

Our anti-slavery and human trafficking policy

We have zero tolerance for modern slavery, and this is reflected in our anti-slavery and human trafficking policy which applies to employees and our supply chain. Amongst other things, the policy provides guidance as to what modern slavery is and encourages the prompt reporting of any activity that would constitute modern slavery. The Pharmanovia Board requests updates on what the business units have done to tackle the issue of modern slavery. Each financial year, Pharmanovia publishes a statement setting out the steps we have taken to contribute towards tackling this issue. This statement relates to our actions and activities during the financial year ended 31 March 2021 and thereafter.
