Our priorities for the coming year are to return
the company as quickly as possible to financial health; continue
the creation of a customer-first culture; win our markets; and reinforce
the importance of our people.
Looking ahead
Our strategy and priorities are closely linked to our desire to
be a company that contributes positively to the environment
and the society
that support us. Our business could not exist if it were not for
our great people, a clean and safe environment in which to operate,
sufficient natural resources and the support of the communities
in which we work.
Agilent's citizenship objective is to be an economic,
intellectual and social asset to each nation and community in which
we operate. Integrating the development of our business with a sustainable
way of life provides competitive advantage, helps ensure long-term
success and increases the opportunities available for the next generation.
Commitment
Our citizenship objective is woven into the structure
of our business. We have developed company-wide policies that guide
our employees on a range of citizenship issues. These are backed
by management systems that ensure we regularly review our objectives
and put our policies into practice across
the
business.
We listen carefully to the ideas and suggestions
of our stakeholders and consider those inputs as we develop our
approach to sustainability. Our sustainability programs are designed
to apply our expertise and ideas to those areas that can benefit
from our input.
Dreams made real
Our mission is to help turn our customers' dreams of human advancement
into reality. We are making those dreams real today at Agilent by
helping to build a sustainable future. |
