Our Corporate Social Responsibility
|
Dialogue and consultation drive progress, and so Arkema fosters constructive relations with all of its stakeholders.
Arkema is committed to being an exemplary player in terms of safety, protection of health and the environment, and sustainable development. The Group’s policy regarding societal and environmental responsibility is underpinned by strong values shared across the Company: spirit of initiative, commitment to progress, professionalism, solidarity, openness, and dialogue.
For a number of years, Arkema has been committed to a continuous improvement approach concerning safety and the protection of health and the environment, with three paramount objectives:
-
control industrial risks, minimize the impact of its activities on the environment, and conserve natural resources;
-
optimize product management throughout their lifecycle;
-
integrate industrial activities more effectively within their local context.
A key component of sustainable development, this progress initiative is based on dialogue and consultation with every stakeholder.
Arkema endorses Responsible Care®, a voluntary undertaking by the chemical industry to improve safety and the protection of health and the environment, under the aegis of the International Council of Chemical Associations (ICCA) worldwide and of the European Chemical Industry Council (CEFIC) at European level. This initiative has also been taken up by national federations, in particular by the Union des Industries Chimiques (UIC) in France where it is known as Engagement de Progrès®.
