Novartis AG’s Valuable 500 Commitment:
At Novartis, we’re committed to ensuring equity and inclusion for people with disability.
Our OneNovartis Disability Equity Strategy, a global, multi-year approach, has been co-created with our associates with disabilities and our Disability Employee Resource Groups as well as external partners including the ILO-Global Business Disability Network and the Center for Disability Integration at the University of St Gallen.
Concretely, we commit to:
-
INFORM all our associates about our commitment to disability inclusion and create shared awareness of what disability is and how we can all contribute to creating a safe, authentic space for dialogue
-
INVOLVE our country organizations to increase physical & electronic accessibility and to pro-actively hire people with disabilities
-
INCLUDE disability perspective in relevant standards & practices and ensure that associates with disabilities feel equally included and have equal opportunities for development & promotions
