Background

Our CSR Approach

A historic and humanitarian commitment

At Artub, environmental, social and corporate responsibility is in our DNA. The safety and well-being of our staff are our top priority, as demonstrated by the key initiatives we have put in place:

  • Participative management (since 2005): We have established a corporate culture based on actively listening to and directly involving our staff.
  • Excellence in Prevention (2009): The INRS recognised 19 members of our teams for their key role in the refurbishment of the workshop, a major initiative aimed at preventing musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs).
  • Territorial Recognition (2011): Our comprehensive approach was recognised by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCI) with the award of the Nord Isère ‘Sustainable Development’ Trophy in the QSE category.

At Artub, our CSR approach is underpinned above all by the reliability of our solutions. We set ourselves the highest standards to ensure the safety of users and the excellence of our industrial management.
