Our sustainability policy
Sustainable development
SPIE and its 48,000 employees are committed to providing energy transition solutions in Europe. At a time when climate change needs us to seriously engage, we are helping our customers to reduce their energy consumption and carbon footprint thanks to innovative, cost-effective solutions. We are modernising buildings and facilities with high-performance technical management systems, extending and reinforcing electricity networks, introducing responsible digital services, installing charging stations for electric vehicles and optimising public transport.
Our commitment to a sustainable future
SPIE Switzerland is committed to sustainability at all levels and in all its departments. Guided by our strong values – performance, proximity and responsibility – we are working towards a better world that is sustainable, responsible and inclusive.
The Group has been a member of the United Nations Global Compact since 2003. We ensure that its principles in terms of human rights, labour standards, the environment and the fight against corruption are applied. Since 2011, SPIE has placed sustainable development at the heart of its growth strategy through its CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) policy. Its commitments are approved by the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi). SPIE is a partner of the European Green Recovery Alliance.

OUR SUSTAINABILITY APPROACH

An ambitious roadmap

This decade will be decisive for the future of our society and our economy. The climate crisis calls for a rapid, global transformation, with an energy transition and a digital revolution that must be synonymous with sustainable progress for every citizen. By the very nature of its business, SPIE is resolutely on the side of solutions that meet the challenges of the energy transition and sustainable digital transformation. And to go even further, the Group has made ambitious commitments to corporate social responsibility (CSR), set out in a roadmap drawn up following dialogue with its stakeholders.

Contributing to a low-carbon economy
As a pioneer in the application of the European taxonomy of sustainable activities, the Group has been calculating the green share of its sales using this methodology since 2019. In 2023, 48% of its business made a significant contribution to mitigating climate change – a high proportion compared with all listed European companies. SPIE has also set itself the target of increasing this green share even further to 50% of its sales by 2025.
The Group will use three levers to achieve this:
  • Favourable market dynamics in green activities, driven by national stimulus plans and the European Green Deal
  • Strong expectations from its customers, who are stepping up their CSR efforts and commitments to a low-carbon economy
  • Increased awareness among its employees of the performance criteria of the European taxonomy and the added value of its green solutions
Reducing SPIE's carbon footprint
As a services company, SPIE's greenhouse gas emissions are limited – 19 grams of CO2 per euro of turnover – and come mainly from its fleet of vehicles.
The Group is committed to a 25% reduction in its carbon footprint by 2025 compared with 2019 (scopes 1 and 2). This target has been developed using the scenario of the global Science-Based Target initiative, which limits the increase in temperature to 1.5 °C. It has been validated by a third-party expert commissioned by the SBTi to ensure its reliability and credibility.
Striving for excellence in safety
The occupational health and safety of its 50,000 employees remains SPIE's top priority and responsibility. SPIE has set itself the target of halving the number of serious lost-time accidents by 2025. To achieve this, it is taking action in four areas: prevention, skills development, leadership, and relations with subcontractors.
Gender equality in management
SPIE is committed to increasing the proportion of women in key management positions by 25% by 2025 compared with 2020. This target will be achieved through internal promotion and recruitment. The So'SPIE Ladies internal gender awareness network, which is active in every country, supports some of the levers used, such as raising awareness of unconscious bias, networking and mentoring. Gender diversity is now also a requirement for any recruitment shortlist for a key management position. SPIE ensures that internal training and development programmes include sufficient numbers of women to encourage internal promotion. Lastly, a number of initiatives are being implemented at our subsidiaries to raise awareness among young women of the benefits of our business lines in terms of energy transition and digital transformation.
