    Response

    8. Briefly describe practical actions the company has taken during the reporting period and/or plans to take to implement the human rights principles, including any challenges faced and actions taken towards prevention and/or remediation.

    In 2021, we established a cross-functional working group with representation from Global Public Affairs, Clinical Process Management, Global Risk & Compliance, Global EHS, Procurement Sustainability, Risk & Compliance, Agile Working and Global Diversity & Inclusion and Global Sustainability. The purpose of the group is to strengthen our approach to human rights and support the embedding of a consistent human rights due diligence practice across LEO Pharma. To define a cohesive approach to a corporate human rights risk assessment, expanding on the high-level gap assessment conducted in 2020, the working group reviewed current approaches to risk assessment within the organization and defined the requirements to ensure alignment with the UN Guiding Principles. The corporate human rights risk assessment was conducted as a self-assessment across six impact areas: 1) Research and development, 2) Procurement, 3) Health and safety, 4) Products, sales and marketing, 5) Community impact, and 6) Employment practices. The data was collected at the end of 2021 and the analysis was completed in early 2022. The purpose of the analysis is to identify and address current or potential adverse impacts from our operations or business relationships. Due diligence is a dynamic process and maturity increases over time. We acknowledge that new, complex issues relating to human rights arise, with a commitment to review our salient issues regularly and identify appropriate actions.
