Initiatives in North America
American culture places a lot of importance on community
involvement. Schneider Electric North America has the following
commitments:
•one of the fl agship programs of the Schneider Electric Foundation
North America is the “matching gift program”, through which the
Company matches employee donations to the organizations of
their choice. In2012, the Company matched 2,532donations in
North America (compared with 2,791 in2011 and 2,578 in2010);
•Pelco by Schneider Electric, the Group entity specialized in
building security and video surveillance, is developing a program
called Pelco Community Partnership Program which encourages
employees to get involved and volunteer in selected associations
for up to 40hours per employee per year;
•APC by Schneider Electric implements a program every year
called Community Impact which gathers employees from
the head offi ce and others to support local associations with
community service (donating or recycling computer equipment,
assisting handicapped people, etc.).
These initiatives are consolidated at the level of the Schneider
Electric Foundation and are taken into account in the different
reports and indicators.
5.3 Territorial positioning and impact on economic and social development
Wherever it operates, Schneider Electric makes a strong
commitment to community partners and civil society through
positioning itself in a way that is indispensable for a global
enterprise that wants to keep in touch with the labor markets local
to its industrial facilities. Numerous projects under way and on
the drawing board demonstrate Schneider Electric’s desire to be
engaged, notably in the area of employment, and to contribute fully
to local economic development.
Business creation in France – Support for
business creation with Schneider Initiatives
Entrepreneurs (SIE)
Approach and action plans
For more than 15years, Schneider Electric has supported employee
projects in France to create businesses or buy going concerns
through Schneider Initiatives Entrepreneurs (SIE), a dedicated
structure demonstrating the Group’s commitment to its mobility,
employment and regional economic development responsibilities.
SIE also illustrates Schneider Electric’s efforts to encourage the
development of entrepreneurial values within its units.
Schneider Initiatives Entrepreneurs provides support for Schneider
Electric employees during all stages of business creation, as well as
afterwards, with a follow-up period of three years.
SIE’s dedicated team of seasoned managers is responsible for
reviewing the fi nancial, legal, technical and commercial aspects of
business creation projects to ensure they are viable and sustainable.
Specifi c support is offered for energy-related projects, which can
benefi t in particular from the support of the Sales and Marketing
Department. These accounted for more than 20% of all supported
projects in 2012. The support of the Sales Department is also
provided to electrical designers from EDF.
