Revolving around integrity and anticipation, the Group has built a complete CSR charter providing the framework for the way Thomson people work and interact with others on a daily basis.
Strong development of ethics policy
The implementation of the CSR charter is the result of a step by step transition from an individual HR management to a global corporate & social policy.
Thomson people benefit from a solid foundation and strong convictions as the Group continues to develop the breadth and depth of its activities. They orient the way the Group interacts with all of its stakeholders: employees, customers, suppliers, partners, governments, and communities around the world.
Electing integrity and anticipation, the Group shows the manner in which Thomson employees should conduct themselves in their daily work lives. Each is indicative of the behavior that should be exhibited by Thomson employees inside the company as well as in their external business relationships. These values are systematically consider when elaborating each employee objectives, they are actionable, measurable, and in accord with the broad scope of Thomson’s business.
