Corporate Social Responsibility

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is about approaching our business aims with an awareness of the associated social and environmental implications and taking measures to address these in a responsible and sustainable manner.

Being a responsible company is a natural consequence of the VINCI PLC approach. We recognise that we do not operate in isolation of the society of which the Company and its employees are part and, as such, have made CSR an integral part of our operations and strategy.

This approach shapes everything we do so that all our activities contribute to the success of the Company both as a business and an employer.

 

Our People
We expect our employees to achieve the highest standards of professionalism in all they do and we undertake to treat them fairly and with the courtesy and respect they deserve. The policy of the Group is that all applicants for employment and existing employees shall be given equal opportunities in all areas of employment. VINCI PLC offers substantial scope for personal development in support of both the goals of the business and individual career aspirations.

 

Health & Safety
We are fully committed to a process of demonstrable, continuous improvement in the pursuit of health and safety excellence. Robust systems and controls enable us to proactively manage our health and safety activity with the aim of achieving zero accidents.

 

Environment
We operate an Environmental Management System which enables us to achieve and demonstrate our environmental performance by minimising the negative impact of our operations, whilst maximising the potential for environmental improvement. Our aim is to be at the forefront of the industry in reducing the impact of all our activities on the environment.

 

Civic Involvement
Resources are allocated and guidance is provided throughout the Group to ensure a consistent and professional approach to the management of all our activities. Measures are taken to ensure the delivery of projects with minimal disruption to all parties concerned. Community relations are actively encouraged as an outward sign of the commitment we have to the communities in which we work, over and above those defined by law or expected by our shareholders.

 

Customers & Suppliers
We continue to actively develop mutually beneficial relationships with all those with whom we do business. We regularly review our business processes with a view to improving quality and productivity, thereby enhancing our ability to create value, whilst at the same time working to achieve the aspirations of sustainable development. In support of this, all areas of the business are encouraged to innovate and share knowledge in the pursuit of a continual drive for excellence.

 

Corporate Governance
We have a responsibility to manage our assets effectively in order to provide our business partners with a fair and competitive return. We insist that the laws and regulations governing our business activities and relationships be meticulously observed.
