Corporate Citizenship
Wyeth is committed to leading the way to a healthier world. In addition to developing novel therapies that address critical
global health needs, our commitment includes living by a set of values that require treating our employees and our communities
with dignity and respect, embracing innovation, and working together to achieve common goals that benefit patients, our business,
our neighbors and the environment. Our Corporate Citizenship efforts—Community Outreach, Diversity, Patient Education
and Environment, Health, and Safety Initiatives—reflect these goals.
