Mobilizing individual energy for good
Created in 2012, our VolunteerIn program inspires people to give back to communities through mentoring, training, and contribution to sustainability initiatives from local partners. By supporting them, we amplify the power of responsible citizenship and sustainable community.
Between 2021 and 2023, 100% of our countries and clusters adopted and drove over 200 local initiatives to impact their local communities and environment, enabling employees and partners to make sustainability a reality for all.
Our unique multi-hub set-up decentralizes our decision-making and talent development in line with our commitment to create equal opportunities for all, everywhere. It also allows us to enhance customer outcomes with diversity and creativity.
In line with our purpose to bridge progress and sustainability, our sustainability initiatives support the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
Sustainable cities and communities
Schneider Electric operates in over a hundred countries. Hence, its impact on territories, cities and communities is significant. By providing locally based solutions, we secure access to safe and resilient urban development for everyone everywhere.
Schneider Electric is the most local of global companies, as such, we commit to positively impact all human lives. We do so by consulting locally and creating collaborative programs adapted for the specific needs of each community we affect.
