The Energy Effi ciency and Solutions Department, part of Strategy<br />
and Innovation Management, is responsible for the EEM (Energy<br />
Effi ciency Monitoring, see page 67) action plan.<br />
Up to the end of 2010, two departments were responsible for the<br />
Group’s environmental policies:<br />
• one responsible for the “green” product and solution policy and<br />
reporting to the Strategy and Innovation Management;<br />
• the other responsible for “green” sites policy and the application<br />
of directives controlling the use of hazardous substances (REACH<br />
and RoHS – see pages 68-69) and reporting to the Global Supply<br />
Chain Management.<br />
At the start of 2011, these two departments were merged into<br />
one single Environment Department, part of Global Supply Chain<br />
Management. The Director of the Environment is ranked below<br />
the Senior Vice President of the Global Supply Chain Management<br />
(member of the Group’s Executive Committee). This department<br />
establishes and deploys environmental policies and programs. It is<br />
responsible for a network of environmental managers. These include:<br />
• for product management: environmental managers in each<br />
business who are responsible for integrating environmental<br />
concerns in lineup management, environmental representatives<br />
who are responsible for assessing the impact on marketing,<br />
and environmental specialists with expertise in integrating<br />
environmental aspects into product design;<br />

• for site management: environmental managers in each major<br />
region, environmental managers in large countries with signifi cant<br />
business volume, and environmental managers in each plant or<br />
supply chain centre. In 2010, the organisation within Global Supply<br />
Chain Management changed from a corporate only leadership<br />
to a regional organisation (North America, Asia-Pacifi c, Europe-<br />
Middle East, Africa and South America). Three SERE (Safety,<br />
Environment, Real Estate) directors were appointed. Each one is<br />
responsible for implementing the Group’s policies in these fi elds<br />
for all sites within their geographical area and for reporting on<br />
improvement plans. There is a meeting of the three directors<br />
every quarter to ensure coherence in the Security, Environment<br />
and Real-Estate policies for the entire Group. To implement this<br />
policy, the SERE directors lead a network of more than 200<br />
managers responsible for the environmental management of<br />
industrial, logistic, and administrative sites.<br />
These networks have access to a wide range of management and<br />
experience sharing resources including directives, application guides,<br />
an intranet site, and databases.<br />
