Responsibility
We are guided by a deep sense of purpose: We make healthy possible. To us, “healthy” not only represents our commitment to producing quality, accessible medicines, but also to elevating our people and our communities, striving for leadership in social and environmental stewardship and delivering meaningful value for all who depend on us. Learn some of the ways we live this commitment in India below.
People
Amneal is committed to providing equal employment and treatment for all applicants and employees when hiring, promoting, and terminating employees, as well as other conditions of employment. Our policies both mandate compliance with local employment laws and prohibit all forms of discrimination based on race, religion, sex/gender, marital status, registered domestic partner status, national origin, ancestry, age, sexual orientation, veteran status, marital status, ability, genetic information, or any other basis protected by country, state, or local regulations.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI)
Diversity is essential to Amneal’s success. To help us tap talent throughout India, including people from disadvantaged and diverse backgrounds, and reduce unnecessary barriers to entry-level jobs, we have created an Apprenticeship program. This Apprentice program is administered in conjunction with government-run Industrial Training Institutes (ITI) and provides the Institutes’ students with one-year paid positions and hands-on experience within our facilities. In exchange, we gain opportunities to meet prospective employees from diverse backgrounds and typically offer employment to approximately 70 to 85 of our Apprenticeship participants each year.
Elevating Amneal to be one of the very best companies in healthcare requires dynamic skillsets, different perspectives and a continuous pipeline of new ideas and innovation. Championing gender diversity can deliver these attributes and more. In early 2023, we launched AmnealWOMEN, an employee resource group (ERG) focused on enhancing gender diversity and cultivating an inclusive culture where all employees thrive.
Environmental Impact
We believe that every company has a role to play in taking action for our planet, including Amneal. In India, we gather and report detailed information on our environmental impact in accordance with the Central Pollution Control Board. This data, which is monitored daily, includes details on environmental protection as it relates to water pollution, air pollution, noise pollution and waste management. We take compliance with these acts, rules and policies seriously and set annual reduction targets to ensure compliance. In accordance with the governmental laws and protocols laid out by the Central Pollution Control Board, we provide monthly reports outlining our environmental impact and seek to comply with all applicable environmental regulations.
Social Responsibility
We are engaged in giving back and encourage employees to actively support the vitality of our communities through various company-sponsored Social Responsibility commitments, including advocacy, employee volunteerism, fundraising and product donations. In India, our teams are heavily engaged in strengthening the social wellbeing of our local communities. We focus our efforts on helping to enhance the quality of life for people and communities through increased access to important healthcare services, education resources and scholarships, various social programs and environmental conservation projects. We are passionate about helping our India neighbors create a better future for their families while also helping individuals pursue their career aspirations.
Compliance and Ethics
We recognize that patients rely on us to deliver quality medicines they can trust. To maintain that trust, we adhere to the highest ethical business standards as well as all applicable laws and regulations. Our Amneal Code of Conduct defines the guiding principles by which all employees enthusiastically drive our business and help earn the trust of countless patients.
