CARING FOR EMPLOYEES NEEDS

Veolia's reputation is underpinned by the excellence and rich expertise of its employees. This rich human capital is the result of a thoughtful effort to continue improvement in three key areas: diversity, health and safety at work, and continuous skill development.

Training is the basis of the company's human resources policy and is embodied in the worldwide Campus Veolia network. The courses are tailored to individual needs and are accessible to everyone, providing clients with the highest standard of service and contributing to employee development and safety.

CONTRIBUTIONS TO LOCAL COMMUNITIES

Veolia plays an active role in the life and development of local communities. Although economic globalization has blurred borders and changed the landscape, water, waste and energy management has retained strong local roots.

In partnership with public and private sector stakeholders, Veolia strives to maintain ecosystem balance wherever it operates. Through its extensive knowledge of local issues and challenges, Veolia creates tailor-made solutions for individual regions and communities through a process of ongoing, clear communication designed to make them more competitive, attractive and sustainable. Veolia contributes to the growth of green jobs and supports the development of small local businesses in the ranges in which it operates.
