The tangible effects of the JOREDOSDQGHPLFIHOWDFURVVWKHZRUOGIURPHFRQRPLFGLI¿FXOWLHVIRU households, communities and businesses to the biggest health crisis of this generation, set off fundamental changes that will reverberate through society for many years. This past year, Perrigo’s vision was the foundation of our tremendous efforts to serve the needs of society during a global pandemic, while maintaining our promises to our customers, team members, shareholders and other stakeholders. As a company operating in a critical industry at a critical time in history, our team rose to the challenge by delivering our critically important products to those who needed them. We accomplished this with an intense focus on keeping our people as safe as possible while advancing our vision: to make lives better by bringing Quality, Affordable Self-Care Products that consumers trust everywhere they are sold. We are grateful for our global team and proud of their herculean efforts in 2020. Keeping Our People Safe Early in the pandemic, we implemented COVID-19 precautionary measures at all our locations worldwide to protect our people, including restricting entry to our facilities to essential personnel only and enacting safety protocols such as screenings for COVID-19 exposure, social distancing measures and face coverings. We also mandated remote work for all employees who could work from home, prohibited all non-essential business travel and leveraged our technology to support continued global communication and collaboration. These measures not only supported productivity, but also reduced operational risk as our manufacturing and supply chain employees were able to remain focused on their jobs. Keeping Production Facilities Open to Support Consumers In addition to prioritizing the well-being of our people, we implemented business continuity procedures to reduce the potential for supply disruptions. This led to a surge in productivity and enabled us to continue delivering our important products throughout the pandemic. We accomplished this without missing a single shift due to COVID-19 in any of our plants. Prioritizing Products to Support Consumers Empowering consumers through self-care was more important than ever in 2020. Staying true to our legacy of being responsive to consumer needs, Perrigo reprioritized production to focus on critical products that the world needed most, especially during early stages of the pandemic. After this prioritization to address the dramatic surge in demand for these critical products, we then resumed production of all product lines by mid-summer. Supporting Communities In response to the critical need for hand sanitizer, Perrigo quickly mobilized to formulate a new hand sanitizer product, all of ZKLFKZDVGRQDWHGWRKRVSLWDOVDQG¿UVWUHVSRQGHUV$GGLWLRQDOO\WKH&RPSDQ\FRQVWUXFWHGDQGGRQDWHGPRUHWKDQIDFH shields and created a month’s supply of solution used to test face mask seals.
