15. Sustainability Strategy

16. Energy Use & Climate protection
Merck tracks the generation of five GHGs associated with operating our facilities and our fleet:
• Carbon dioxide (CO2)
• Methane
• Nitrous oxide
• Hydrofluorocarbons
• Sulfur hexafluoride
• Initiative
 New facilities to comply with their Energy Design Guide and Energy Conservation Planner
 Built all new laboratories and offices following cost-effective energy-efficient practices. they have
several facilities that are LEED-certified
 In 2014,they conducted energy “treasure hunts” at two facilities in the U.S.
 In 2014,they also began the “Treasure Hunt Online” to help generate energy-savings ideas that
can be shared with all our sites.
 Three U.S. facilities were awarded the 2014 ENERGY STAR label by the U.S. EPA for superior
energy efficiency and environmental performance among U.S. pharmaceutical manufacturing
plants
 Photovoltaic (PV) arrays, wind turbines and other renewable energy installations help them to
reduce energy-demand peaks and to postpone or avoid adding new power plants

17. Water Use & Recycling of chemicals
• Cooling-system optimization
• Recovery and reuse of steam condensate and water
purification of “reject water”
• Process-water purification-system optimization
• Closed-loop cooling systems are employed at more than half
our facilities worldwide and reduce our freshwater use by
more than 5 billion gallons a year
• Reverse osmosis (RO) reject water is reused for nonpotable
and nonprocess applications such as cooling-tower feed
water, fire water and irrigation, and saves an estimated 50
million gallons of freshwater every
• In the 2013-2014 period, we started recycling heptane, a
chemical that accumulates during the purification of liquid
crystals.
• They collect the heptane, have an external recycling
company treat it, and then reuse the purified solvent in our
processes. Our recycling rate is over 85%, which is enabling
us to lower our heptane consumption by 1,900 metric tons
per year and thus reduce our total waste.

19. They have a well-established global compliance program that
is consistent with the International Federation of
Pharmaceutical Manufacturers & Associations (IFPMA) Code
of Practice requirements.
Written standards, including a corporate Code of
Conduct, compliance-related policies and
procedures, education, training and
communications, reinforce the importance of
ethical and compliant business practices.
The Corporate Compliance Committee meets at
least four times per year to review the compliance
status across the company’s business divisions
worldwide as part of the committee’s effort to
assess the effectiveness of the company’s
compliance program.

20. Global Privacy Program
Program is designed to assure that four core privacy values—respect, trust,
prevention and compliance—are embedded into the way they conduct their
business, without regard to how their business, technology or other external
factors may change.
A key component of the approach is focused on facilitating efficient cross-
border data flows.
In 2014, they filed an application with the Belgian Privacy Commission for
approval of our global privacy program under the European Union (EU)
Binding Corporate Rules (BCR) cooperation procedure.
MERCK is the first company in the world to file an application for EU BCR
approval based on an existing APEC CBPR certification.
The aim of our is to promote globally interoperable privacy standards across
the more than 50 countries and economies combined in APEC and the
European Economic Area.

21. Corporate Responsibility

Company’s business strategy and appropriately evolves as business does.
At the core of their strategy is Merck/MSD’s
corporate responsibility value proposition :“Helping the world be well.” The following four
areas make up prioritized strategy to enhance
global well-being by:
1) improving access to
health
2) demonstrating through their actions an
ethical and transparent approach
3) operating in
an environmentally sustainable fashion
4)starting at home with the well-being of our own
employees.
