Significant events
Access to energy:
The BipBop program changed scope in 2010 (see p. 80).
After a successful launch in India, In-Diya, the low-consumption
lighting offer marketed to the BoP, is now available in Africa, and
new battery charging and device charge management solutions have
been launched.
The socially-responsible venture capital fund made its first
investments in France and formed new partnerships.
In addition, around 15 training programmes were implemented in
12 countries.
Roll-out of the Responsibility & Ethical Dynamics
program (see p. 48-49 and 50)
Dedicated processes and teams were set up in 2010 to add to the
Our Principles of Responsibility text, which defi nes the basic rules of
behavior for Schneider Electric employees. This text aims to teach
all employees how to act in delicate situations and how to use the
organisation set up to answer their questions.
Governance
In 2010, all aspects of the Group’s sustainable development policy
were reinforced:
•continuity on the Supervisory Board: after James Ross, Cathy
Kopp joined the Supervisory Board to focus on sustainable
development;
•new Executive Committee members: sustainable development
is still supervised by the Executive Vice President for Strategy &
Innovation and discussed in quarterly meetings with two other
Executive Committee members, the Executive Vice President
for Global Supply Chain and the Executive Vice President for
Global Human Resources, so that all the Group’s sustainable
development issues are covered. Sustainable development was
added to all Executive Committee members’ bonus criteria for
2011;
•a sustainable development representative in each entity: each
of the Group’s Global Functions and businesses appointed
a sustainable development correspondent in charge of
implementing improvement plans.
Schneider Electric Foundation
In 2010, the Foundation was very busy with emergency assistance
and reconstruction programmes, primarily in Pakistan, Chile and
Haiti. It set up programs to help build energy trade training centers,
with support from employees on-site and in liaison with third-parties,
NGOs and/or governmental authorities.
NS = indicator not monitored
▲ Audited Indicator
* In the previous Annual Report, the indicator measured the people having attended energy management solution courses (2,655 at the
end of 2009). Since the beginning of 2010, only the people having completed the entire educational course offi cially recognised by a
certifi cation are recorded by the indicator.
The 2008 performance serves as a starting value for the Planet & Society Barometer Program One between 2009 and 2011.
The arrow indicates if the indicator has increased, remained idle, or decreased in 2010 compared to 2009. The color indicates if the
indicator is above or below the goal.
