Merck Ltd. Thailand: A Commitment to Business and Social Responsibility
Merck Ltd. Thailand plays a key role in marketing pharmaceuticals and chemical products from Merck KGaA and its associated companies. Over the years, it has established itself as a leading supplier to hospitals, institutions, and industries across Thailand.
From its inception, Merck Thailand has remained committed to being a responsible corporate citizen, guided by its core business philosophy—the 4 Stakeholder Approach. This philosophy is built on the principles of Care for Employees, Care for Customers, Care for Shareholders, and Care for Society. The company believes that business success is deeply intertwined with corporate responsibility, making it an integral part of daily operations and decision-making. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has long been at the heart of Merck Thailand’s culture, with every employee playing a role in improving lives and making a positive impact on society.
Fostering Employee Growth Through CSR
With a workforce of approximately 250 employees spanning multiple generations, Merck Ltd. strongly believes that CSR is not just a corporate obligation but also a leadership responsibility. Employees are encouraged to contribute their ideas, creativity, and networks to develop impactful CSR initiatives. By providing the right opportunities and an environment that nurtures self-leadership, Merck empowers its employees to drive meaningful change for the company, customers, and their own career growth through action-based learning.
Making a Difference Through Meaningful Initiatives
Merck Thailand’s CSR initiatives focus on sustainability, social welfare, and community engagement. One of its standout projects, the Together We Grow reforestation campaign, leveraged past experiences and knowledge to maximize environmental benefits. With the participation of over 300 employees, business partners, and customers, the campaign successfully replanted 10,000 trees, contributing to a greener future.
Another impactful initiative, The Amazing Raise Fund, challenged employees to raise funds without a budget, inspiring them to find creative ways to support those in need. This campaign raised nearly 100,000 baht, which was donated to three foundations. Similarly, the Giving campaign encouraged employees to offer non-monetary gifts such as time, effort, and activities dedicated to helping underprivileged communities.
Merck Ltd. Thailand continues to invite its passionate employees, customers, and stakeholders to join hands in making great things happen. By integrating business success with social responsibility, the company remains dedicated to creating a lasting, positive impact on both society and the environment.
