Contributing significantly to "Health and Food for All"

As a global life sciences business, we are exposed to a wide range of internal and external developments and events that could significantly affect the achievement of our financial and non-financial objectives. Therefore, opportunity and risk management is an integral part of Bayer's corporate governance. We have implemented a holistic and integrated risk management system designed to ensure the continued existence and future achievement of the Group's objectives through the timely identification, assessment and management of risks. The risk management system is aligned with internationally recognized standards and principles such as the ISO 31000 standard of the International Organization for Standardization.

The challenges of the future are significant: Climate change, biodiversity loss, extreme weather conditions and water crises are considered global risks of our time. They are of particular importance to Bayer's health and nutrition business. However, they also host huge opportunities to help bring our operations and products around the world, positively impact people's lives and achieve growth with sustainable businesses.

We have a special responsibility. We know that the size of our business alone means that we should and can make a significant contribution to sustainable development. With innovative products and services, as well as the will to develop resilient and future-oriented business models, we return to our roots: Our purpose "Science for a better life" guides our actions to help achieve a high quality of life in a healthy planet. To this end, we progress towards science and innovation. We develop solutions that address the most important ecological and social challenges and must achieve our vision "Health for all, hunger for none".

                    "Corporate Social Responsibility with Participation & Interaction"

At Bayer, with our corporate purpose reflected in the phrase “Science for a Better Life”, our absolute priority is to contribute to the continuous improvement of the lives of our fellow human beings through our products.

With our innovative solutions, products and services, we underline our commitment to operate responsibly and through our activity to contribute to the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that aspire to respond to some of the greatest global challenges. Specifically, at Bayer Hellas, we focus on three Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are the achievement of a) Zero Hunger for All, b) Access to Good Healthcare for All and c) Promoting Innovation and the Creation of Good Industrial Infrastructures.

To achieve our high goals, we place Corporate Social Responsibility at the core of Bayer's corporate strategy and we work every day with passion, consistency and continuity to have a positive social impact. For us, CSR is our strong commitment to Society and we are convinced that in order to achieve the positive social impact we aspire to, the continuous interaction of our people with society is required.

To this end, we have developed a comprehensive program with actions that actively involve Bayer people and bring them into contact with the respective groups of society, to which the specific actions refer. Thus, at Bayer we now speak of Corporate Social Responsibility with Participation & Interaction or as we call CSR at Bayer Corporate Social Participation (CSP), giving another dimension to the concept.
