MAKING IT SUSTAINABLE
PRYSMIAN GROUP
2015
YEARLY OVERVIEW
1.
In business
Ethics in business activities: the
profit motive does not justify
improper behaviour. Profit must be
achieved by respect for the rules
and competitors, and by fair and
transparent actions that anticipate
and meet market needs, thus
generating value for distribution to
all stakeholders.
2.
With people
Ethics in internal relations:
the bond with employees is
strengthened by respecting their
rights, expectations and needs and
by fostering improvement in their
living standards and professional
growth. The individual is central
to every activity, as the engine for
future development.
3.
For the environment
Ethics in environmental and social
matters: given its strong belief
in the principle of sustainable
development, the Prysmian Group
operates worldwide with respect
for the environment and social
communities; at the same time,
it encourages the responsible use
of resources and promotes local
projects designed to enhance well-
being in the areas concerned.
CODE OF ETHICS:
OUR THREE PILLARS
All companies within the Prysmian Group are committed to comply rigorously with the Code of Ethics, applicable regulations
and the rules and procedures adopted from time to time by the Group. In order to ensure the widest possible distribution of its contents,
the Code of Ethics - available in the 26 languages used by the Group - is also published on the website,
www.prysmiangroup.com.
Prysmian has recently drawn up its own "Constitution", serving
as a charter of rights and moral duties. A shared document that defines
the ethical-social responsibilities of each participant in the organisation.
