Our sustainability commitment
- Carbon Footprint
In 2023, we conducted a carbon footprint analysis to identify and manage areas of action (travel, buildings, responsible purchasing, waste management, etc.) to reduce the environmental impact of our activities. We have developed a concrete action plan aiming to reduce carbon emissions by 50%, excluding the annual growth target, within five years.
A key action we take is raising awareness among our employees. Thus, by joining Avencore, everyone signs a Sustainable Travel Policy.
- Supporting Our Clients in Industry Decarbonization
Among our teams, 25% of consultants are trained in the “Bilan Carbone®” methodology [a French methodology for measuring and reducing greenhouse gas emissions], and 75% are trained in the “Climate and Environmental Competitiveness” methodology.
We are members of the French Association for Low Carbon Transition (ABC). We have already conducted carbon footprint reduction missions in several sectors: Consumer Goods, Automotive, Microelectronics, Wood and Paper Industry, Defense, etc.
We are highly attentive to respecting the diversity of all our colleagues and clients, and we strive to provide a work environment that allows everyone to flourish.
- Diversity & Inclusion
All our managers are trained by external coaches on Diversity & Inclusion.
- Parents@Avencore
In all the countries where we operate, we ensure that parenthood does not impact our employees’ career paths. Depending on local legislation and contexts, we implement specific measures such as maintaining salaries during paternity and maternity leave regardless of seniority, coaching upon returning to work after the arrival of a child, no travel requirements, etc.
- Women@Avencore
We regularly organize knowledge sharing sessions to support and promote the advancement of our female employees. As a player in a historically male-dominated industrial world, we are strongly committed to equal opportunities for all genders.
- Employees with Disabilities
We make every effort (workstation adjustments, therapeutic part-time work, for example) to ensure that our employees with disabilities can perform their duties in the best possible conditions and reach their full potential.
- People are our added value and the strength of our consulting. All our employees benefit from proximity management and are supported at every stage of their career. Learn more about development paths within the firm.
- At Avencore, we encourage initiative-taking and an entrepreneurial spirit. Everyone can contribute to the common adventure according to their preferences and creativity and participate in the company’s growth, innovation projects, communication actions, internal activities, etc.
- We value a culture of innovation within our teams. Thus, we have established an internal working group on the impact of Artificial Intelligence on industrial sectors and the consulting profession. We partner with innovative technology players such as Dassault Systèmes and engage in research and development (R&D) activities.
