To contribute to sustainable development issues, BOURBON takes into account the social and
environmental impacts of its business to adopt, as possible, best practices and thus contribute to the
betterment of society and environmental protection. All stakeholders are implied, namely customers,
employees, shareholders, public authorities, banks, insurances, professional and academic associations,
suppliers, its business environment and society in general.
To lead and operate these strategic issues, BOURBON has defined an organization which encompasses
Corporate Social Responsibility amongst all other management disciplines. In this context, BOURBON
established a dedicated organization to improve performance in each concerned sector: economic, social
and environment.
BOURBON identified seven Corporate Social Responsibility principles and seven main topics to lead the
Organization towards improved performance.
