Agilent is committed to making a difference in helping to protect the planet, enhance human health, and be a leader in the marketplace through addressing environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues to achieve a more prosperous world for all.
In 2021, the Agilent Foundation gave U$633,361 through its employee donation matching program, where Agilent matches employees’ contributions to thousands of local, national, and international charities of their choice up to $25,000 per employee per year.
Each year, Agilent gives employees six workdays of paid time off, known as the Volunteer Time-off program. Through this program, employees across 19 countries spent 15,128 hours volunteering in their communities last year, valued at U$802,403 in employee time.
In Malaysia, Agilent continues to support the local NGOs on societal and environmental projects, from fundraising for underserved children to inspiring students in STEM and recycling. The fundraising, Step-A-Thon, collected RM19,820 when 114 employees ran or walked 1,795 km for Children’s Protection Society, a children’s home in Penang.
To inspire young people to pursue STEM education, Agilent sponsored a premiere robotics competition organized by the Penang Science Cluster NGO. The sponsorship includes a mentor program to guide students in building and programing robots. On the environmental project, Agilent partners with Riiicycle, a cutting-edge incentive and reward system for recycling solid wastes. Over six months, Agilent Malaysia successfully collected 891 kg of recyclables. These initiatives reflect Agilent’s focus on people, planet, products and prosperity to help make the world a better place.
