Fair Money & Economic Opportunity

Haleon PLC is a global consumer health company that develops, manufactures, and markets over-the-counter healthcare products.

The 'Fair Money & Economic Opportunity' value and its associated KPIs are designed to assess financial institutions that lend, insure, move, or store money. As Haleon's core business does not involve providing financial services, lending, or deposit products to consumers, all KPIs under this value are not applicable. The company does not have APRs, fee structures, loan books, or financial service access points to evaluate. While Haleon engages in various health-related inclusion initiatives, such as supporting the Health Inclusivity Index , providing health education , and expanding access to health products in underserved communities , these activities fall outside the scope of financial services and economic opportunity as defined by this rubric.

Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing

Haleon has a Supplier Code of Conduct, available in 17 languages

and outlining 19 principles, which establishes minimum standards for its suppliers. The company is committed to following the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, OECD Guidelines, Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and ILO core labour standards. Haleon also states a zero-tolerance policy for corruption and is required to disclose information regarding conflict minerals in its products. However, the provided articles do not contain specific quantitative data to assess KPIs such as fair-trade certification share, audit frequency, forced/child labour incidents, supply chain traceability, remediation speed, ethical clause coverage, high-risk materials spend, or supplier diversity spend.

Kind to Animals

Haleon received a Tier 5 ranking in the 2023 Business Benchmark on Farm Animal Welfare (BBFAW).

The company uses animals for drug testing and states its policy is to only use animals in new product development when alternative testing methods do not exist and when there is a specific scientific, legal, or regulatory requirement to do so.

No War, No Weapons

No specific, concrete data points or verifiable actions related to the 'No War, No Weapons' ethical value were found across the provided articles. Information regarding revenue from arms contracts, dual-use technology, sales to embargoed regimes, peacebuilding investments, or any defense-related policies is absent. While Haleon states a commitment to UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights

and has a Code of Conduct , these are general statements of intent or policy and do not provide specific, measurable evidence of action or outcomes as required by the rubric's KPIs. Similarly, the disclosure of conflict minerals via Form SD filings , does not provide a percentage of the supply chain certified conflict-free, which is the specific metric for that KPI.

Planet-Friendly Business

The company aims to achieve net-zero Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions by 2030

, underpinned by a 95% absolute reduction target against a 2020 baseline . These Scope 1 and 2 emissions represent approximately 8% of its total value chain carbon footprint .

Respect for Cultures & Communities

No specific, quantifiable evidence was found in the provided articles for any of the KPIs related to 'Respect for Cultures & Communities'. While general statements about recognizing local market dynamics and aiming for health inclusivity were present, these did not provide concrete data points or actions that could be mapped to the defined scoring rubric thresholds for formal partnerships, community investment, cultural incident management, or other specific community engagement metrics. For example, Employee Resource Groups are mentioned for employees, but not as grievance mechanisms for community concerns. An investment of $54.2 million in an R&D facility in Richmond, Virginia

and an internship program in partnership with Virginia Commonwealth University are noted, but not as a percentage of revenue reinvested in local community development.

Safe & Smart Tech

Haleon has enhanced its GDPR and other risk and privacy compliance, including managing and investigating privacy consent in partnership with a third party.

Following its demerger, the company inherited 270TB of data and addressed challenges in assessing PII risk, prioritizing remediation, and data classification. It implemented a Risk & Privacy Data Discovery solution, which identified corporate sensitive information in unauthorized locations and led to a 37% reduction in Cost of Risk on 10TB of reference data, optimizing $7 million in risk costs within three months. Custom data classification and a remediation policy for aged and high-risk files were also formulated. Additionally, Haleon is focusing on gathering zero-party and first-party data to reduce reliance on third-party sources.
