Saint-Gobain PAM is committed to the challenges of sustainable development
at each stage of the design, production and commercialisation processes.
The principles and values defended by Saint-Gobain
PAM are based on the responsible use of resources and
materials, as well as a firm professional commitment to respect
for the environment and health and safety in the workplace.
Internally, a constant flow of communication with all its workers
and collaborators allows for the smooth implementation
of positive corporate changes whilst encouraging personal
career development. The flow of information and two-way
communication favours professional achievements within the
general interests of the company.
In addition, the integration of the disabled into the workforce
is one of the values applied at Saint-Gobain PAM. In addition
to the natural respect for the individual, this principle enhances the
motivation of all its employees, building up a sense of cohesion.
The concern for sustainable development is present
in each of the decisions made and is reflected in the working
conditions and remuneration: a secure environment, the
identification and prevention of risks, and the assessment of
possible hazards.
Saint-Gobain PAM contributes actively to the needs
and demands of sustainable development by involving all its
collaborators and employees, transmitting values of responsibility,
transparency, creativity and innovation. The application of the
EHS Charter (environment, hygiene in industry and health and
safety) is a direct response to its respect for the law and health
and safety in the workplace.
