2024 Integrated Report

Interview with the Chief Executive Officer

What are the Group’s CSR priorities for 2025?

SBTi endorsed Equans’ decarbonisation targets at the end of 2024. The Climate strategies of all the Group’s activities have now been independently verified. We will also have to manage the decarbonisation targets of each of our business segments to comply with what was announced to our stakeholders.

We also have to address many human resources challenges, across all our geographies, to make our Group more attractive. Our greatest resource is the women and men of Bouygues. Our growth and results are highly dependent on our ability to attract and retain the talent we need by offering them interesting careers. We are doing everything we can to rise to these challenges – especially given the tight international labour market – through our ambitious HR policy.

The challenge of gender balance is always at the heart of our concerns. We need to give more responsibilities to women in management. This is as much about fairness as it is about efficiency and common sense. Every woman, by giving their best, must be able to reach the highest positions. It is also the Group’s firm belief that diversity is a source of innovation and creativity and a strategic asset for the company.

Finally, I cannot stress enough that compliance with our Code of Ethics must guide our actions every day. Bouygues’ operational teams are fully aware that this is a matter of imperative importance.
