Launch of a formal policy

2007 saw the launch of Actitudes, Bouygues Construction's sustainable development policy. Organised around seven key themes subdivided into 42 actions, it constitutes the common core of the policy for all Bouygues Construction subsidiaries.

Organisation

A sustainable development department has been created, reporting to Bouygues Construction's senior management,
to oversee policy implementation. It is supported by sustainable development managers in each of the group's seven operating units and a network of 90 officers who promote the policy within their particular subsidiary.

Bouygues Construction's commitments are published on its website:

- Sustainable development charter appended to contracts with the aim of involving suppliers and subcontractors in the policy.

- Introduction of the "blue", or QSE, work site label in Europe, awarded to sites operating under exemplary quality, safety and environmental standards.

- In-house European Safety Day initiative
(9,000 participants), followed by a campaign
to raise safety awareness with "Safety. Life's worth it" slogan.
