Ensure the safety of our employees

Almost 15 years ago, the Group implemented the “SAFETY is OUR business” approach, based on an Occupational Health and Safety Charter and supporting our goal of Zero occupational accidents. 

This approach relies on the network of safety prevention specialists at subsidiaries across the world, as well as on various decision-making and sharing instances whose aim is to adjust priorities.
