Embracing our responsibility
Governance | Being resourceful
Around the world, Gap Inc. has dedicated employees working full-time to advance our social and environmental practices.
What’s more, every Gap Inc. employee has the opportunity to make a difference. We ask every employee to make choices that support social and environmental progress along with our business goals.
We encourage our business leaders and employees companywide to be active in key social responsibility initiatives. For instance, our Environmental Council includes business leaders from across the company who are working to improve our environmental practices. We also meet with Gap Inc. brand and sourcing business partners on a regular basis to review factory performance.
Over time, we’ve realized that many of the problems we’re trying to solve are too large and complex to be solved by any one company. In many cases, we’ve found that stakeholder partnerships get better results. By working together, factory owners, non-governmental organizations, companies, trade unions, international organizations and governments can pool their knowledge, skills, influence and resources to achieve an impact far beyond anything one organization could achieve alone.
