Our Sustainability Approach

As a member of the UN Global Compact, we align our efforts with its principles to drive responsible business practices. Through this membership, we have identified key Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) where our operations and products can make a measurable contribution.

In early 2024, our participation in the UN Global Compact SDG Ambition Accelerator helped us refine our sustainability targets and further align them with global priorities. This initiative supports our ongoing efforts to implement concrete actions that contribute to a sustainable and low-carbon economy.

We view these goals as important commitments that can move sustainable development forward, both in our local communities and globally. Mercer’s dedication to these goals underscores our commitment to fostering positive change toward a more sustainable future.

As a signatory to the UN Global Compact, Mercer is committed to the Ten Principles of the United Nations Global Compact. We realize that our success in sustainability is rooted in our value system that translates into operating with ethics and the highest regard for human rights. In 2024, Mercer completed its first Communication on Progress which enables participating companies of the UN Global Compact to measure and demonstrate progress to stakeholders and the public on the Ten Principles and the Sustainable Development Goals in a consistent and harmonized way.
