Better Health for All

ENGIE's operations contribute to air pollution, with reported reductions in NOx emissions by 75%, SOx emissions by 98%, and total particulate matter emissions by 64% from a 2017 baseline to 2024.

The company has a Cash for Communities program in Cambodia that supports local communities with healthcare, education, and infrastructure. Additionally, ENGIE's clean cookstove projects in Nigeria are noted as a preventative health measure, and the company's health and safety policy includes measures to prevent occupational illnesses. During the Covid-19 pandemic, ENGIE implemented measures to prevent infection and supported employee well-being.

Fair Pay & Worker Respect

ENGIE's lost-time injury frequency rate for employees and subcontractors was 1.8 in 2023.

The gender pay gap was 1.92% for 84% of the workforce in 2023. The employee engagement rate was 87% in 2023, based on 78% participation in the ENGIE&Me survey. The voluntary turnover rate, excluding retirements, was 5.4% in 2023. In 2022, there were 305 declared incidents in My Ethics Incident, including 6 allegations related to human rights and environmental law. At the end of 2023, 91.7% of employees were on permanent contracts, meaning 8.3% were on non-permanent contracts. The ENGIE Care program provides health coverage, guaranteeing reimbursement of at least 75% of hospitalization costs, but a specific percentage of workforce coverage is not provided.

Honest & Fair Business

ENGIE received an 81/100 score from S&P Global for transparency.

The company has a comprehensive whistleblower protection policy, communicated to all staff, with multiple reporting channels including email, dedicated phone numbers, and an online portal, guaranteeing confidentiality and anonymity. An external provider manages the whistleblower system. ENGIE maintains a zero-tolerance anti-corruption policy, incorporating international standards (UK Bribery Act, US FCPA, French Sapin 2 law) and detailing due diligence procedures for third parties, including a 'Bureau des Due Diligences'. The company has obtained ISO 37001 certification for its anti-corruption management systems, which is renewed annually by accredited bodies, indicating independent verification of its ethical claims.

Kind to Animals

ENGIE's core business as an energy and services company means that many animal welfare KPIs, such as cruelty-free certifications, animal testing, humane certifications for animal operations, ethical input substitution, supplier audits for animal products, cage-free sourcing, animal testing policies, animal testing volume, innovation investment in animal-free alternatives, and animal agriculture ethics, are not applicable to its operations. Therefore, these KPIs are scored as N/A. Regarding wildlife conservation, ENGIE has several initiatives with documented outcomes, including planting 567,200 mangrove saplings in 2024, managing 58 solar sites with pollinator-friendly ecosystems covering 890 acres (~360 hectares) in 2024, saving 6,533 fish in the Sossís Canal in 2022, and investing €8.2 million in the Rhône restoration project in 2024.

The company also manages 533.64 hectares under its Regenera+ project. However, the provided evidence does not state these conservation efforts as a percentage of revenue, which is required by the rubric for positive scoring tiers, leading to an N/A score for this KPI. ENGIE is a member of industry forums related to biodiversity and sustainability, such as the WBCSD's sectoral work and act4nature common commitments. However, there is no evidence of specific financial or resource commitments to develop industry-wide animal-free testing or sourcing standards, indicating no formal collaborations or minimal engagement with animal welfare stakeholders. The company's public policy engagement focuses on environmental and climate policies, with no explicit public position or advocacy for animal welfare legislation.

No War, No Weapons

The provided articles do not contain specific, quantifiable data points for any of the KPIs related to the 'No War, No Weapons' ethical value. While the company's annual reports (Articles 1, 2, 3) mention general CSR performance and sustainable procurement, they explicitly state a lack of data regarding arms contracts, dual-use technology, sales to embargoed regimes, peacebuilding investments, conflict divestment policies, board oversight of defense, export certifications, lobbying on arms control, humanitarian procurement compliance, human rights due diligence in conflict areas, Arms Trade Treaty compliance, AI military safeguards, UN Guiding Principles alignment in a conflict context, dual-use screening, surveillance transparency, ethical red lines, exposure to controversial weapons, war-risk audits, annual conflict partner reviews, defense divestment, conflict minerals, peace tech investment, or procurement from conflict zones.

A past project from 2020 for army housing energy efficiency (Article 4) is not relevant to current reporting periods (2023-2024) and does not provide a current percentage of revenue from defense contracts.

Respect for Cultures & Communities

No specific, concrete quantitative data points were found in the provided articles that directly map to the defined KPIs for 'Respect for Cultures & Communities'. While some articles mention general commitments, policies, or regional initiatives related to community engagement, cultural heritage, or human rights, they do not provide the numerical evidence required by the rubric's quantitative thresholds for any of the KPIs. For example, while Article 2 mentions 'almost $1M spent in the previous two years' on procurement from First Nations-owned businesses in Australia & New Zealand, this is a specific amount for a regional subsidiary, not a percentage of company-wide procurement spending, and thus cannot be mapped to the 'local_procurement_share' KPI.

Similarly, the existence of grievance mechanisms is mentioned in multiple articles, but no data on the percentage of operational sites covered is provided, preventing scoring for 'grievance_mechanisms_availability'.
