Safeguarding Family Well-Being, Every Day<br />

hospitals and for aid in global pandemics and natural disasters. It speaks to our employees’ volunteerism<br />

and giving activities and our support for K-12 education, various charities and other community programs.<br />

And it conveys our commitment to creating more sustainable products and our goal to play an even greater<br />

role in public health through our infection prevention platform.<br />

When we thought about who benefited the most from our social impact, we realized it was the whole family:<br />

the nuclear family, the multigenerational family, the single parent family, the domestic partnership — even the<br />

family pet. No matter what kind of family you have, our products and the partnerships we have developed —<br />

from the American Red Cross and Sierra Club to Children’s Health Fund and the American Society for<br />

the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals — are all focused on supporting your well-being.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Five Pillars of <strong>Clorox</strong>’s Corporate Responsibility<br />

We have defined our commitments in five critical areas:<br />

Performance Achieve financial success with transparency, strong governance and corporate<br />

responsibility embedded in our operations<br />

Products Deliver responsible products, made responsibly<br />

People Promote diversity and inclusion, opportunity and respectful treatment for everyone who<br />

touches our business<br />

Planet Shrink our environmental footprint while we grow our business<br />

Purpose Safeguard family well-being, every day<br />

<strong>The</strong>se pillars represent areas where our business and social imperatives intersect. <strong>The</strong>y serve as the foundation<br />

of our corporate responsibility strategy, which we formalized this year.<br />

We understand that now, more than ever, the choices we make can have a significant impact on people,<br />

our planet and our communities. I believe our strategy and our commitments will guide our company<br />

toward long-term, sustainable growth, while enabling us to positively contribute to the communities in<br />

which we conduct business.<br />

For <strong>The</strong> <strong>Clorox</strong> <strong>Company</strong>, corporate responsibility is an ongoing commitment and a journey. We are pleased<br />

with our progress so far, but we have more to accomplish and a lot to learn as well. In the meantime, everyone<br />

at <strong>Clorox</strong> is committed to earning your trust, every day.<br />

Donald R. Knauss<br />

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer<br />
