Children’s Safe Drinking Water program
P&G launched our Children’s Safe Drinking Water Program in 2004 and now work with over 150 partners around the world to distribute P&G Purifier of Water packets and provide more than 14 billion liters of water to those who need it most.

Preemie Pampers
Every year in the US, half a million babies are born prematurely. When Susan Ludwig, Creator of the Pampers Preemie Diaper, learned that parents of these babies did not have access to a preemie-sized diaper, she got to work.
“I thought if anybody has the technology, the creativity and the passion to make this diaper, it was us.”
P&G partnered with Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) nurses to design and introduce a diaper that is three sizes smaller than newborn diapers to fit the tiniest premature babies who weigh as little as one pound.
We aspire to be as diverse as the people who use our products, because the more we reflect our consumers, the better equipped we are to understand and serve them. We strive each day for every P&Ger to be valued, included, and able to perform at their peak. We win when everyone brings their unique self to work, when we bring out the best in each other, and when every talent is used and every voice is heard.
Celebrating Diversity
Our annual Diversity & Inclusion Week celebrates the unique individuals that we all are and encourages us to come together. The events and activities that take place during this week are a source of inspiration and learning.

#TalkAboutBias
P&G does not shy away from a challenge, and we are proud to take a stand on breaking down inequality driven by racial bias. We decided to step up and use our voice to shine the light on racial bias, continuing our efforts to create a better world for everyone, with equal representation, equal voice and equal opportunity — regardless of background. The Talk illustrates that, while times have changed, racial bias still exists. It’s time we #TalkAboutBias #MyBlackisBeautiful

We aspire to build a better world for all of us — inside and outside P&G; a world free from bias and with equal voice and equal representation for all individuals. A world where everyone sees equal. We know that gender equality contributes to stronger economies, healthier communities and thriving businesses.
We are focusing on three areas where we can have the greatest impact:
- Leveraging our significant voice in advertising and media to tackle gender bias. One example, is the latest Change Destiny campaign, Timeless where Katie Couric and SK-II inspire women around the world to draw their own timelines and celebrate that destiny is a matter of choice, instead of living a life according to society’s gender based expectations of them.
- Removing gender-biased barriers to education for girls and economic opportunities for women through our corporate programs and policy advocacy efforts like Always Keeping Girls in School
- Creating an inclusive, gender-equal environment inside P&G, and advocating for gender-equal workplaces beyond P&G so that everyone can contribute to their full potential. Busting Workplace Myths takes a critical first step towards changing perception by showcasing the myths about women in the workplace vs. the reality.
But that’s not all – learn more about a few of our gender equality efforts below:
-
#WeSeeEqual
We believe that when we make gender bias visible and bring awareness to it, we have the power to motivate change. We launched #WeSeeEqual in March 2017 to inspire a new expectation and reset the outdated narrative that has been in place for far too long

With the help of thousands of volunteers and hundreds of NGOs collecting plastic waste found on beaches, we will remove 2,600 tons of recycled plastic from the world’s beaches every year.

FINDING VALUE IN WASTE
P&G is committed to the promise that all our manufacturing sites will send ZERO manufacturing waste to landfill by 2020. This requires working with local partners on circular approaches, and finding a beneficial use for more than 640,000 metric tons of waste (the weight of nearly 350,000 mid-size cars).
Currently, more than 85% of our sites have achieved this status by eliminating or finding alternative uses for waste. This includes all of our manufacturing sites in two of our largest markets, China and India, for a total of 23 countries.
In addition, our Always and Tampax Feminine Care business unit was the first business to reach zero manufacturing waste to landfill across all their manufacturing sites. These efforts, combined with company-wide sustainability initiatives, saved more than $1.9 billion since the program began in 2007.

PURECYCLE: REVOLUTIONIZING THE PLASTICS RECYCLING INDUSTRY
P&G started using recycled plastic in our packaging in the late 1980s, but our use of recycled polypropylene (PP) was limited by the lack of available high-quality materials. One of our scientists invented a technology to remove the color, odor and contaminants from recycled PP. This technology purifies recycled PP back to a virgin-like form, and can open up billions of pounds of plastic material to meet an unmet demand for like-new recycled plastic — something that was not possible before.
P&G licensed the technology to PureCycle Technologies (PCT), a portfolio company of Innventure, a Wasson Enterprise Partnership that commercializes disruptive technologies. PCT hosted a ribbon-cutting for a new plant in Hanging Rock, Ohio, that will produce recycled PP plastic with “virgin-like” quality. While this is a P&G-developed technology, the recycled PP produced will be widely available for purchase across the entire plastics industry.
