We are happy to share our latest explainer video on the PSCI Governance Structure. This is the third of a series of videos that have been developed to help support further engagement on the Link and explain key aspects of the PSCI.
We would like to thank the Communications Committee for their contribution in developing these resources.
We are happy to share our new animated video on the PSCI Principles for Responsible Supply Chain Management.
In 2019 the Danish government launched 13 industry-specific climate partnerships to enable sector-wide collaboration towards achieving the country’s goal of reducing their GHG emissions by 70%. Various PSCI member companies in Denmark participated in the Life Sciences and Biotech sector partnership and through discussion successfully included the PSCI Principles into the sector-wide recommendations related to supplier codes of conduct, highlighting those Principles specifically linked to positive environmental outcomes and reducing GHG emissions.
We are very pleased that the Principles have been included in the sector recommendations roadmap that was shared with the Danish government in March of this year. This is a fantastic recognition of the power of the PSCI Principles, collaboration, and sharing best practice with peers. You can find out more about the Danish government’s climate partnerships here and read the recommendations that include the PSCI Principles here.

At the PSCI, we’re committed to doing everything in our power to limit that the spread and growth of two emerging threats – Pharmaceuticals in the Environment (PiE) and Anti-microbial Resistance (AMR). That’s why for World Health Day, we’re excited today to launch our new Position Statement, which provides a clear explanation of the critical role we play in helping our supplier partners improve their manufacturing practices. The statement has been written to highlight the relevance of the PiE issue along the supply chain, to articulate the PSCI's position on this high profile topic, and to help answer stakeholder inquiries. It includes an overview of all PSCI resources on PiE and AMR-related issues.
The statement is available for download here.
In 2020, we invited the PSCI members to participate in our third formal Member Benchmarking Survey and we are pleased to present the results in this Insights Report (available for download here). We have used the data collected over the years to share year-on-year trends, as well as provide a snapshot from 2020.
This report paints a picture of rising engagement and increasing focus on responsible procurement. We hope that you find it useful and insightful.
We successfully held our first virtual auditor trainings on 24-25 Nov and 2-3 Dec 2020. The training sessions were delivered by senior audit experts from PSCI member companies and covered PSCI Audit Updates, Social Audit, Environmental Protection, General Safety, Process Safety, Emergency Preparedness & Response, Occupational Health and Industrial Hygiene, PiE/AMR, and High-risk Work.
Each training day, around 260 people, including auditors, suppliers and non-auditor colleagues from member companies and audit firms, tuned in from across the world. The majority of them found the event useful and said they would like to have more, similar sessions.
You will find the recordings and slides for each session by clicking on the relevant links below:
FAQ collected from the training is available here.
We’re very thankful for your support and commitment towards these events and look forward to seeing you again in the future.
