Social and societal policy and actions ❙ Human Resources highlights<br />
■ Social rating<br />
Social reporting is carried out to communicate social criteria to specialised<br />
rating agencies who then gauge the company’s performance in terms of<br />
Human Resources. The most notable criteria are: respect of human rights,<br />
training and professional mobility policies, quality of social dialogue, health and<br />
security in the work place, sustainable development… Accor completes a<br />
questionnaire for 3 social rating agencies: SAM, EIRIS and VIGEO.<br />
• The SAM rating agency (Sustainable Asset Management) focuses on the<br />
future impact of company actions in terms of social responsibility. The agency<br />
rates companies according to two criteria: investment opportunities or risks in<br />
relation to sustainable development. According to the profile established by<br />
SAM, Accor belongs to the World DJSI list which includes the best 10% of<br />
companies from the Dow Jones list, based on these criteria.<br />
• The EIRIS (Ethical Investment Research Service) analyses over 2 000<br />
companies on the London stock market. Their rating puts Accor in the FTSE<br />
4 GOOD list, which lists the companies working in favour of the environment,<br />
developing dialogue with their stakeholders (corporate governance, civil<br />
society), fighting the risks of exclusion (activities linked to alcohol, weapons)<br />
and supporting the universal principles of human rights.<br />
• The French rating agency VIGEO is co-founder of the SIRI Group (Sustainable<br />
Investment Research International Group), an international network for<br />
collecting and processing social and environmental corporate information.<br />
Their rating puts Accor in the ASPI Eurozone stock market list (Advanced<br />
Sustainable Performance Indices) which lists the 120 quoted companies in the<br />
euro zone with the best performance in sustainable development.<br />
