Veolia's purpose is not just a slogan, it is expressed in a complete text
Veolia’s purpose is to contribute to human progress by firmly committing to the Sustainable Development Goals set by the UN to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. It is with this aim in mind that Veolia sets itself the task of “Resourcing the world” through our waste, water and energy services.
Veolia’s continuing success is founded upon our usefulness to all of our stakeholders in the various regions where we operate – customers, shareholders, employees, suppliers, communities including both current and future generations.
Veolia's purpose hinges on the answers to 4 questions:
- In what way is Veolia useful to society?
- What is our mission?
- How is Veolia different from other companies?
- For whom and how is the wealth generated shared?
Veolia's purpose was developed through a long process of work and unprecedented collaboration involving, among others, the company's management teams, employees, the Critical Friends Committee of external experts, customers, and communities.
