[email protected], CIN : No. : L27201WB1967GOI028825 Date: 30.09.2019 Dear Stakeholders, In September 2015, the United Nations launched a new agenda for sustainable global development towards 2030 with a set of Global Goals intended to eradicate poverty and improve lives. HCLhas been committed to the UN Global Compact corporate responsibility initiative and its ten principles in the areas of Human Rights, Labour, Environment and Anti-Corruption. We firmly agree that these principles need reinforcement on a global scale, and in partnership with a spectrum of stakeholders engaged in the UNGlobal Compact Network. In this first annual Communication on Progress we describe our actions to continually improve the integration of the ten principles into our business strategy, culture and operations. We also commit to sharing this information with our stakeholders using our primary channels of communication. In step with societal developments and the company's growth, HCLis committed to being a responsible business leader in a globalised world. The Global Goals are ambitious, as they should be. It is a tall task to safeguard the world's global health and development challenges. To succeed, governments, civilsociety organisations and the Industry need to work together as partners in the implementation, as we have done in the framing of the goals.
