Commitments
We work to help farmers around the world produce crops while most efficiently using energy, water, and soil. Our commitments to safety and human rights help guide how we get there.
Monsanto’s commitment to safety is central to everything we do – from the products and solutions we deliver, to the facilities where we work, and the processes we use to develop our products:
- Product safety depends on transparent research. We dedicate a team of hundreds of scientists to assess the safety of our products, and share their findings with regulatory authorities and the public.
- All of our workplaces are operated under our environment, safety, and health policies. Outside the workplace, we promote safety off the job via educational events throughout the year.
Every Monsanto employee and business partner deserves not only a safe environment, but also equal opportunity and unquestioned dignity and respect. With a global workforce spanning multiple cultures, countries, and languages, we place a strong focus on human rights to ensure fairness and equality at our workplaces across the globe.
Our human rights policy is guided by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Labor Organization’s Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. This robust policy applies to our operations as well as those of our business partners who provide manual labor for in-field trials and the production of seeds.
Through ongoing open dialogue with employees, stakeholders, and society as a whole, we are committed to continually working to ensure that safety and human rights remain at the forefront of everything we do.
