Corporate Social Responsibility

At United Drug, we strive to create a workplace environment that provides equality, diversity, and employee support at every given opportunity. Our goal is to nurture an environment that is open, honest, and free of bias and where we align to make better health possible to the customers and patients we serve across communities in Ireland.

Charity “Giving” aligns with our Mission
As a company, we want to make a positive difference in Ireland. The Charity Programme gives our colleagues and customers the chance to support a cause that is close to their hearts and benefits the local communities where we work and live.

How we select our preferred Charity
We value what our employees value and hence collectively we can do good, give back and change lives. We invite our employees to select their preferred charity, so it has personal meaning to them. The charity with the largest votes is nominated as the preferred charity for an agreed time, often two years, and becomes the sole focus and official charity for our collective fundraising efforts. To ensure we optimise impact, we focus efforts and resources on this one charity.

Diversity & Inclusion

At United Drug, we want all our people to feel included and have a voice. We understand the value of diversity. An inclusive culture is essential to growing our diverse environment and building successful teams.

But we believe inclusion means more than just getting along. We believe in a workplace where everyone can be their full, authentic self. Because that is when we work at our best and learn the most from each other.

International Women's Day

At United Drug, International Women’s Day is an important day for us. This year we celebrate the women of United Drug, but also the men that help us to #breakthebias every day, not just today.
We remain committed to a workplace free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination, where difference is valued and celebrated.
