This result reflects Long Chau's responsible approach in minimizing environmental impacts, maintaining transparency in business operations, gradually applying sustainable principles in supply chain management and focusing on human factors in the entire value chain. This is considered a milestone showing that Long Chau's initial steps on the journey of sustainable development are in the right direction and approaching international standards on ESG implementation.
Representatives of the pharmacy system and Long Chau vaccination center expressed: "Committed Badge is not the destination, but the starting point. This badge reminds Long Chau to continue to improve the system, improve operating standards, better manage ESG risks and spread sustainable development thinking more widely throughout the value chain: from internal to partner, from today to the future.
“On the journey ahead, Long Chau is committed to constantly improving, putting people at the center, taking social responsibility as the foundation and taking sustainable development as the long-term direction. We believe that each small but sustainable step forward today will contribute to creating positive and long-term values for the community, for the health sector and for society”.
Furthermore, this is also Ecovadis' recognition for Long Chau's continuous improvement efforts in deploying and maintaining effective sustainable development practices, meeting the assessment framework on four key pillars: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Business Ethics and Sustainable Shopping.
The Long Chau pharmacy and vaccination center system ensures strict compliance with safety rules from operating, preserving drugs to treating medical waste; digitizing all processes to help save energy. Notably, Long Chau pioneers cooperation with pharmaceutical units to properly recycle more than 478,000 plastic cases of used insulin injection pens and asthma spray device cases. Through projects, Long Chau expects to create a sustainable and strategic cooperation model in medical waste management and environmental protection in Vietnam.
Long Chau is also steadfast in its mission to improve community health, putting people at the center of all activities. Long Chau not only provides quality, genuine and transparent pharmaceuticals and vaccines, but also strives to join hands in raising people's awareness of proactive healthcare. Based on the "close to the people, close to the people" network, the system has brought modern and safe healthcare services closer to tens of millions of Vietnamese people. Through this, Long Chau wishes to actively contribute to the common goal of the nation in building a modern, fair and effective healthcare system.
On that journey, digital transformation, big data applications and AI are the "key" for Long Chau to optimize operation, deeply understand customer needs, develop smart and personalized healthcare services.
In addition, for many years, the "Long Chau Sharing" program has implemented screening, medical examination, and free medicine distribution for thousands of people. In parallel, Long Chau supports tons of medicine for people after natural disasters; implements free immunization campaigns; accompanies the Ministry of Health in raising community awareness about stroke prevention... These are strategic steps, affirming a consistent and long-term commitment to narrowing the gap in healthcare, responding to the spirit of Resolution 72-NQ/TW of the Politburo and Resolution No. 282/NQ-CP of the Government.
At the same time, Long Chau identifies human resource development as an endogenous strength for the journey of sustainable development, "for a healthy Vietnam". The business encourages each individual to promote their capacity through medical professional training programs, playgrounds and internal competitions. In the past year, the system has implemented many in-depth training programs for pharmacists, doctors and nurses to help improve counseling capacity, standardize vaccination safety and emergency handling skills. The spirit of sharing is also promoted through activities to promptly support staff in difficult circumstances. Thanks to that, Long Chau has been and is building a team of medical professionals with solid expertise, responsible, and putting people's health at the center.
It is known that EcoVadis is the world's leading prestigious sustainable development ranking organization, currently evaluating more than 130,000 global businesses. Being recognized by EcoVadis is an opportunity for Long Chau to comprehensively look back at the values it is creating for society.
