Exploring our sustainable
development
actions...
Edito
2020 has dramatically confronted us with our own collective and individual responsibilities vis a vis human lives and economic systems. The Covid pandemic and its unexpected brutal threat on life led to lockdowns and restrictions sowing the seeds of a deep socio-economic crisis.
Groupe PSA chose PROACTIVE RESILIENCE to deal with the pandemic waves and implemented decisions at an unprecedented pace to protect its employees first, and serve its corporate purpose: ensure freedom of movement by providing safe, sustainable and affordable mobility solutions.
As a mobility provider, Groupe PSA ranks in the front-runners of the necessary global transition and take this responsibility seriously.
In this sanitary context, the group made sure, that this responsibility permanently guided its business strategic plan and its philanthropic actions to enhance performance, with no compromise on ethics. The human-centred lens it uses for all business operations were particularly helpful to see around corners, imagine what fitted best its stakeholders' interest and deliver a competitive edge with agility.
PERFORMANCE AS A SHIELD AGAINST THE CURRENT HEADWINDS AND THOSE TO COME
The results collectively achieved in the last 6 years proved to be the best safeguard against the chaos brought by the COVID-19 crisis. The group's positive financial position at the end of 2020 highlights the Group's resilience, as a reward of the recent years of intensive work to increase its efficiency.
These results also rely on a permanent watch on ESG data, used as pre financial indicators. Groupe PSA is a socially recognized company, as a member of the world's leading SRI(1) indexes. It had its carbon trajectory validated as compliant with the Climate Paris Agreement by SBTi in 2019. Financial and non-financial performances feed each other. This dual economic and societal performance proves to be the best protection against the vagaries of the markets.
Strong and long running companies bring solutions: Groupe PSA state of the art range of products and services supports its willingness to defend strongly the freedom of movement as a fundamental right for humanity.
Designing a sustainable future of mobility is both a matter of economic performance and responsibility.
(1) Socially Responsible Investment.
GROUPE PSA RESPONSIBILITY: BRINGING TANGIBLE ANSWERS TO THE QUESTION OF "AFFORDABLE MOBILITY"
- long-timesupporter of the UN Global Compact and the ILO Principles, Groupe PSA embarks environmental and societal impacts in all its decision-making processes in a 360-degree approach.
At the most tumultuous moment of the Covid crisis, the Group never stepped back on ESG matters. On the contrary, it speeded up on pending decisions in order to protect its future and be true to its values:
- On the labor dimension, it immediately rolled out through the company the most demanding health protocol in order to protect employees.
- On the environmental dimensiontaking the lead of
CO2 emissions in Europe for 2020, it accelerated the operational phase of its Carbon Neutrality Project with 4 major steps forward: - launching AMI, the Citroën full electric urban mobility device,
- launching the new eVMP platform (Electric Vehicle Modular Platform) to gradually move from two multi-energy platforms to two 100% state of the art electrified platforms to support the ramp up of the range of electric vehicles,
- making the mobility brand Free2Move an auton- omous and agile entity, with a technological expertise of the urban shared mobility solutions,
-
disrupting ways of working with 70% of time in remote working for all applicable job positions to
reduce CO2 footprint of commuting and energy consumption of facilities by 30%.
- On the societal dimension, Fondation PSA brought exceptional support to the "All United against Coronavirus" Alliance, in addition to the Group's solidarity actions (donations of masks, production of respirators, 3D printing of protective screens and free vehicle availability for hospital employees) and a voluntary Top Management grant to support mobility solutions to people in precariousness.
- Finally, on the economic dimension, Groupe PSA managed both urgent and long-term matters with the same efficiency and resilience. While immediately and responsibly adjusting the production to market demand, and tailoring support to the most fragile suppliers, teams achieved to implement 2 strategic decisions, in line with the group's corporate purpose: make safe and sustainable mobility affordable.
2 GROUPE PSA - CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY REPORT 2020 -
- vertical integration in electric mobility though the launch of ACC - "Automotive Cells Company"- , a joint venture dedicated to the manufacture of batteries in Europe.
- merger with FCA, leading to Stellantis, in order to leverage synergies and protect the affordability of sustainable mobility.
Fighting climate change and ensuring freedom of movement with affordable mobility solutions is where corporate responsibility and challenge stand for Groupe PSA.
There is no such thing as "one size fits all solution": the UN Sustainable Development Goals are a framework for actions and for the implementation of concrete solutions tailored to the specific needs of citizens in their specific territory with a long-term view.
TRANSPARENCY AS THE BASIS
OF A RESPONSIBLE DIALOGUE
WITH STAKEHOLDERS
As a leading company, the Group makes sure pursuing its corporate purpose fully benefits to its stakeholders with
consistent decisions and actions over time. Customers, employees, investors, suppliers and the civil society challenge the company and expect a positive contribution to the economy, the society and the environment.
The clarity and the quality of the information published transparently by Groupe PSA is a key factor of efficiency in its permanent dialogue with its stakeholders. It also feeds the public debate, for the benefit of the general interest. The Group notably supported a special issue of Politique Internationale dedicated to the freedom of movement in a decarbonized world.
The Group also updated its materiality matrix in 2020, involving a broad scope of internal experts and a wide range of external stakeholders, increasing the representativeness of the young generation and including regional focuses, notably from North America.
This annual CSR Report presents how Groupe PSA responsible business model creates shared and sustainable value. The 23 CSR commitments supported by accountable members of the Executive Committee are part of a proactive trajectory. All of the Group's employees are committed to implement its CSR roadmap, which reflects its ambitions for the future.
