Sustainability Plan
The Sustainability Plan is the tool used to share the Group’s future trajectory with its stakeholders: it represents an expression of the ambitions of the Recordati group and the commitments it wishes to prioritise in order to promote sustainable and responsible growth.
Growth and achievement of challenging business and sustainability goals are not incompatible: on the contrary, Recordati is convinced that responsible actions and the generation of shared value contribute to the long-term success of the Company.
Improving people’s health and quality of life is the basis of our mission: it is part of our DNA. Recordati’s People have always given their utmost every day to pursue this goal.
As emphasised by the World Health Organization (WHO), health is not merely the absence of disease or infirmity, but a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being. To improve health, it is therefore necessary to intervene on a number of determining factors, such as the social, physical and economic conditions under which people are born, live and work, including healthcare systems. In this context, in addition to institutions and governments, pharmaceutical companies must also develop strategies for the improvement of the healthcare system, in terms of availability, accessibility and quality of healthcare structures and the goods and services provided.
We are living in a rapidly changing world that often raises concerns about sustainability for future generations. The current scenario in which we live has led us to reflect deeply on the relationship between humanity and nature and on the importance of an overall balance: the well-being and health of people and the health of the planet are closely connected. We cannot be healthy in an unhealthy environment and with no health there is no wealth and no social equity.
With this systemic approach and in accordance with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development priorities, we wish to contribute to supporting global development, promoting human well-being and protecting the environment.

The Sustainability Plan, defined in accordance with the materiality analysis, also highlights the contribution to the achievement of 10 of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda, the common goals signed by UN member states that outline a path of collaboration and responsibility to confront today’s complex challenges.
Process for the definition of the Sustainability Plan
The objectives of the CEO’s MBO scheme include the key social and environmental targets defined in the Sustainability Plan. Furthermore, responsibility for the achievement of the goals included in the Sustainability Plan is assigned to the representatives of the various departments involved, who have the resources, tools and know-how required for their implementation; the Management by Objectives (MBO) scheme integrates social and environmental objectives associated with the implementation of the Plan itself which are assigned to certain key management figures.
