Sustainability commitment
At Quality Assistance, sustainability is part of how we do science and how we work with people. Our mission is clear: help innovative medicines reach patients faster and safely. But that mission only makes sense if we also act responsibly by reducing our footprint, caring for our teams and upholding high ethical standards every day.
This mindset drives both our analytical precision and our partnership culture. Because above all, we believe that progress happens through people. Through our WeCareWeAct programme, we turn this belief into action across four key pillars:
- Public Health: contributing to public health and improving understanding among the general public.
- Environment: reducing our environmental footprint and embracing renewable energy sources.
- Happiness: caring about the happiness, well-being & development of our team members.
- Community: supporting our community and humanitarian causes.
By working hand in hand with our clients, employees and partners, we foster an inclusive and ethical workplace where every action contributes to a healthier and more sustainable world.
