Our business operations affect the interests of many people. The Merck Mission Statement, Values and strategy are also aimed at ensuring Merck’s position as an accepted member of society. We therefore maintain a continuous dialogue with the relevant groups in society, namely stakeholders such as our business associates, employees, the Merck family, investors, government authorities, associations, neighbors at our sites, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and many more.
Our relationships with various groups in society reveal how we live the Merck Values and how we value others. It is our goal that the Merck way of doing things in all its activities will be recognized as the unique Merck culture. We want to maintain trust and – wherever possible – balance diverging interests. A wide variety of topics are concerned here – depending on the occasion and the location – for which we seek highly specific solutions and select the method best suited to the topic.
