CSR governance 2.1.3 The CSR sectors report to a member of the Group Executive Committee (GEC) or a member of the Management Committee and are coordinated by three operating entities that design and implement policies and associated objectives, identify and roll out risks and opportunities, enter into dialog with stakeholders and lastly handle reporting and communication: the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) department responsible P for an interdisciplinary and partnership approach to CSR throughout the value chain, societal actions and innovations.

The director of this new entity is a member of Groupe Renault’s Management Committee. the Human Resources department is responsible for optimizing P allocated resources, skills development, employee involvement and social dialog; the Strategy and Environmental Planning department is P responsible for environmental issues to be included in the Company’s strategy.
