Products
As a family of consumer products companies, we recognize that concerns about the impact of our companies’ products comprise our most critical area of responsibility. Both Philip Morris International (PMI) and Philip Morris USA (PM USA) have undertaken a number of initiatives as responsible manufacturers and marketers. Each is an advocate for meaningful and effective government regulation of all tobacco products and is focused on reducing the harm caused by cigarettes through the development of new processes and technologies. They are communicating openly and honestly about the health effects of cigarette smoking. Each company is working to prevent youth smoking and to provide information to help adult smokers who have decided to quit be more successful. Both companies have opened up a serious dialogue with individuals and groups that have been their sharpest critics.
Kraft Foods (Kraft) is bolstering its role as a cooperative partner with stakeholders and experts in the areas of food quality and safety, coffee and cocoa sustainability, health and wellness, and responsible marketing practices.
Environment
The Altria family of companies is committed to reducing the environmental impact of its activities and promoting the sustainability of the natural resources upon which it depends. Kraft, PMI and PM USA are all working to benchmark and improve their environmental performance, set priorities for the future based upon individual business requirements, and identify opportunities to collaborate more effectively with key environmental and agricultural stakeholders along their supply chains.
Workplace
Our companies are committed to supporting work environments that are safe, secure and harassment-free. Each of our companies is dedicated to promoting teamwork, diversity and trust. We are focused on treating our employees fairly and do not engage in or condone the unlawful employment, or exploitation, of child or forced labor.
