A Commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility
Of the seven Golden Rules that form the basis of our operations, three focus on social responsibility: “Be a good citizen”, “Ensure the safety of our people everywhere and at any time” and “Recruit, develop and retain quality people”.
Our priorities are as follows:
2023 Activity and Sustainability Report
GEODIS recently published the 2023 Activity and Sustainability Report, which presents our CSR strategy and its impact. As a company and as an employer, we place social and environmental issues at the heart of our concerns.
Double materiality analysis
GEODIS performed its first materiality analysis in 2023, with the aim of prioritizing the CSR issues facing the Group. This materiality analysis was carried out principally through consulting its main stakeholders, both internal and external, and adopting a double materiality approach.
Some of our actions:
Climate
Mindful of the environmental impact of logistics and transport activities and of the growth in demand, GEODIS is committed to developing environmentally friendly solutions for its customers: low-carbon alternative transport, multimodal solutions, virtuous circular economy loops, etc.
Responsible value chain
The ecological imperative is coupled with a duty to lead by example. GEODIS does so by actively ensuring that our own and our partners’ value chains and processes respect the environment, human rights, health and safety, and the best international standards.
Health and Safety
The Group’s frequency rate for workplace accidents has seen a sharp decline of 30% over the last three years. This demonstrates the commitment of the Group and its employees to a safe workplace environment.
Professional gender equality
Today, 40% of our employees are women - operating in traditionally male-dominated roles. And we are well on our way to achieving our target of having 25% women in top executive management positions by the end of 2023.
