IHH Healthcare Berhad | Annual Report 2024 16 Group Overview Our Sustainability Approach As a global healthcare leader, we are passionate about fostering a healthier and more sustainable future for all. After all, “doing no harm” is one of the key principles of the Hippocratic Oath. At IHH Healthcare, sustainability is about going beyond “doing no harm” and is aptly summarised in our aspiration to “Care. For Good.” We believe that a solid sustainability framework allows us to not only achieve our purpose of touching lives and transforming care, but also encourages good business performance. This framework is underpinned by a robust governance structure to keep us on track in our sustainability journey. It is also tied to performance and remuneration in the Group’s Balanced Scorecard as part of our wider business strategy. Robust governance with clear accountability and ethical conduct is the foundation that keeps us on track in our sustainability journey, whilst ensuring that all legal and regulatory obligations are met. People Patients Planet Public Governance Empowering Our Patients We focus on delivering better, faster, more convenient, and transparent care through a variety of initiatives that range from striving for better clinical outcomes to empowering patients via innovation and technology and safeguarding data privacy. Protecting Our Planet We are progressively advancing in environmental stewardship by focusing on waste and water management, reducing our carbon footprint through energy efficiency projects, bolstering climate resilience, and integrating sustainability into our supply chain management practices to ensure responsible sourcing and operations. Nurturing a Healthier Society We focus on tackling antimicrobial resistance, reducing disease burden through health literacy and screening (for cancer and cardiovascular diseases), enhancing emergency preparedness, and making quality healthcare accessible to underserved communities through free or subsidised treatments. Shaping the Best Place to Work We enhance our programmes and policies to foster a safe culture and workplace environment that prioritise employee total well-being, that nurture diversity and inclusion, and that continuously engage and develop our people to bring out the best in them.
