Influence Policy

In terms of lobbying, and in line with its CSR Policy, the Group intends to defend its positions and actively contribute to debates in society, public decision-making, and regulations, as part of a constructive dialogue with public authorities and in partnership with its peers.

 

By applying its Practical Ethics Guide, ENGIE condemns influence peddling and corruption in all its forms. We will never fund political activities, including in countries where these donations are legally allowed.
We will uphold internationally agreed human rights in all of our relations with public authorities.
