It outlines the Group’s CSR policy and sets out the commitments that suppliers working with Groupe PSA must abide by. The policy is available in several languages on the Group’s B2B portal. The Group’s CSR requirements: are based on a personal commitment to monitoring: since 2010, the Group’s Code of Ethics has specifically mentioned the integration of ethical and environmental criteria into the supplier relationship; are gathered in an ad hoc reference guide for suppliers: these requirements make explicit reference to the Global Compact, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, the Rio Declaration on the Environment and the United Nations Convention against Corruption; are distributed to the most important suppliers of the Group and to suppliers associated with high-risk countries or commodities. These suppliers are asked to formally commit to comply with the Groupe PSA guidelines or to demonstrate their compliance with equivalent guidelines. As of end-2017, 1,030 suppliers had made this commitment, accounting for 92% of the purchasing spend managed by the Purchasing Department; are incorporated into the fundamental principles of supplier relationship management, in contractual documents such as purchasing contracts and purchasing terms and conditions, and in the Group’s purchasing processes.
