Transformation
In 2009, sanofi-aventis initiated a transformation program to become a diversified, global healthcare company. This transformation affected the Company’s approach to sustainability.
As an expression of this new direction, the Sustainability Report has also been transformed:
• It is now called the CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) Report;
• For the fi rst time ever, it will be available on-line instead of in print (this translates into savings of 9.2 tons in CO2 emissions);
• The report focuses on important CSR challenges identifi ed by materiality testing;
• More in-depth information is provided on the Group’s CSR website.
