Strategy
An ambitious and holistic CSR strategy
Our CSR strategy is informed by the main challenges identified by our stakeholders through the double materiality assessment performed in 2024. It signals our resolve to balance the competing imperatives of business performance and social and environmental responsibility as we strive to shape a sustainable future.
The double materiality assessment conducted in 2024 confirmed that the three top-line priorities of our CSR strategy – putting people first, environmental protection and social responsibility – remain as relevant as ever. The Group’s efforts in each of these areas are underpinned by detailed action plans that deliver regular progress. All the Group’s business segments have a sustainability strategy to address the impacts, risks and opportunities identified in the double materiality analysis. This strategy is an integral part of the Group’s management cycle and informs the business segments’ operational strategy.
Putting people at the heart of our Group through “People First”, an ongoing strategic action plan launched in 2023 (see p. 34-35). This initiative demonstrates Bouygues’ determination to provide its people with an inclusive and respectful working environment and reflects its ongoing efforts to bolster its Health & Safety policy.
Contributing meaningfully to the green and energy transitions by acting in favour of the climate and helping to fight global warming all along our value chain (see p. 38-39), working to preserve resources and protecting biodiversity (see Business Segment Strategies, p. 40-55)
Building relationships of trust with our stakeholders by placing a strong emphasis on human rights – as evidenced by the publication of the Group’s Human Rights Policy (see p. 33) – as well as by complying with the highest standards of business conduct at all times (see p. 12-13) and pursuing a responsible purchasing strategy (see p. 36), while supporting the development of the geographies in which we operate and practising good corporate citizenship (see p. 37).
