Approvisionnement durable
Nous nous efforçons d'améliorer en permanence la durabilité de nos activités, de nos produits et de nos services. Dans une approche globale de la durabilité, nous encourageons également nos fournisseurs à s'engager activement dans cette démarche et à contribuer à l'atteinte de ces objectifs.

Code de conduite à l'intention de nos fournisseurs
PROTEGO® s'engage en faveur d'une gestion d'entreprise responsable sur les plans environnemental, social et éthique. Nous attendons le même niveau d'engagement de la part de l'ensemble de nos fournisseurs. Nous demandons également à nos collaborateurs de respecter ces principes et de les intégrer pleinement dans notre culture d'entreprise ainsi que dans leurs pratiques quotidiennes.
Le présent Code de conduite des fournisseurs s'appuie sur les lois et réglementations nationales ainsi que sur les conventions internationales, notamment la Déclaration universelle des droits de l'homme des Nations Unies, les Principes relatifs aux droits de l'enfant et aux entreprises, les Principes directeurs des Nations Unies relatifs aux entreprises et aux droits de l'homme, les normes internationales du travail de l'Organisation internationale du Travail (OIT) ainsi que le Pacte mondial des Nations Unies (United Nations Global Compact).
Nous attendons de nos fournisseurs qu'ils respectent l'ensemble des lois, réglementations et exigences des normes qui leur sont applicables. Ils doivent également veiller à mettre en œuvre des pratiques conformes aux principes énoncés dans le présent Code de conduite et à les promouvoir tout au long de leur chaîne d'approvisionnement.
