In our pursuit of SMILE-based targets, it is imperative for us to begin this ripple effect of SMILE with our employees. We are committed to ensuring the wellbeing of those we serve, building a culture of inclusivity and creating meaningful opportunities for all people to succeed within and beyond Colgate. Holistic well-being is an organizational priority. This is a key component of our 2025 Sustainability & Social Impact Strategy and an expression of living our Company's purpose.

Our people strategy ensures that

• Our workplace is where everyone feels they belong
• Our organization has the people, capability and agility for the future
• Our teams have ongoing opportunities to learn and develop

This strategy includes creating an inclusive work environment built on trust, developing our leaders of the future and promoting a mindset of continuous learning.
