GRI Index

Crucell and the Global Reporting Initiative 2009

One of Crucell’s ambitions regarding Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) reporting is to meet the comprehensive criteria established by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). The systematic approach introduced by Crucell in 2009 lays the foundation for achieving this ambition to continuously improve the level of GRI compliance and reach A level in 2015.

On this page [see overview below] you will find a detailed GRI index. We self-declare our Annual Report 2009 to GRI Application Level C. For more information on the Global Reporting Initiative please visit www.globalreporting.org.
