At Zurich Australia, Corporate Responsibility is anchored to our corporate strategic framework, with the aim of complementing our business objectives and decisions with a range of environmental and social programs.
“Zurich's aim is to embed Corporate Responsibility in all its business strategies, decisions and operations. Companies that adopt such strategies early will find opportunities to both profit and create social good.
"For companies operating within our community, it is not a matter of Corporate Responsibility being 'nice to do' - it is now a business imperative."
Chief Executive, Mr David J Smith
Because we take our Corporate Responsibility commitment seriously, Zurich has embedded the principle of being good corporate citizens into its core company values. Our principles serve as a reference point for making decisions and evaluating options in the way we conduct business. In turn, they help us to create a better business and to recognise our organisation’s role beyond day-to-day business, such as in the community and the environment and as an employer of talented people.
Zurich Australia has a number of programs in place to ensure our actions make a positive impact in all we do, and to help our stakeholders to do the same.
