Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility at Estee Lauder Companies

Beauty is about managing our business sustainably. Our long-term success depends on our ability to make conscious decisions to embed sustainable practices along our value chain. We are dedicated to understanding and managing our economic, environmental and social impacts throughout our value chain. By strengthening policies, establishing baselines for key data and working to identify future goals and targets, we are continuing to build on our heritage of responsibility while deepening our commitment to our many stakeholders.

Effectively addressing today’s global challenges requires collaboration between governments, civil society, local communities and private enterprise. We work with many partners to strengthen the environments and communities in which our business operates. These stakeholders share their expertise, knowledge and resources to help inform our company’s global sustainability strategy and vision, and they have helped us understand how we can support theirs.

Community Impact and Philanthropy

The company’s founding values inspire our commitment to operate responsibly and motivate us to build a sustainable business based on uncompromising ethics, integrity, fairness, diversity and trust. In partnership with our suppliers, our retailers, our consumers and everyone we touch, we aspire to foster our heritage of respect for people and the environment and be a positive influence in every community we serve.
