SUBCONTRACTORS AND SUPPLIERS
The LISI Group is part of a “win-win” sustainable partnership with its
suppliers and subcontractors to ensure mutual, long-term success.
Aside from economic considerations (quality, competitiveness
and continuous improvement), the Suppliers Charter established
by the Group dictates the terms of partnership in accordance with
the principles of ISO 14001, which are addressed during audits for
selecting new suppliers.
The approval and implementation of the ten principles of the United
Nations’ “Global Compact” program (Corporate Social Responsibility
principles that include Human Rights, Labor Standards, Environment
and the Fight against Bribery) are also mentioned in the Suppliers
Charter.
The Group’s Purchasing Policy includes a section on ethics, sustainable
development and corporate responsibility, with the application of the
“Global Compact” principles and the requirement for ISO 14001 and
OHSAS 18001 certification, in particular for our strategic suppliers
and subcontractors.

LOYAL PRACTICE

Actions taken to prevent bribery
The LISI Group has built its growth on compliance with laws and best
practices. Each division is responsible vis-à-vis the Group’s Senior
Management for the proper performance of its subsidiaries and
employees. Relationships with third parties are dictated by the Group’s
scoping procedures, which are implemented by the divisions through
the dissemination of division-specific procedures. For example,
LISI disseminates and updates a Purchasing and Supplier Relations
procedure, which specifies for example the limits and authorization
thresholds for donations and gifts.
The Group’s employees are trained on ethics and values through a
specific module. In addition, the Supplier Charter that complies with
the principles set out in the United Nations’ Global Compact program
is widely distributed to all LISI stakeholders.
