In 2016, the Responsible Supplier Relations Label was awarded to Caisse d’Epargne Ile-de-France and Caisse d’Epargne Midi-Pyrénées.
The
Responsible Supplier Relations Label is awarded to French companies in recognition of the sustainable and balanced relations they have with their suppliers. It is the only label of its kind awarded by the Government. In line with the Responsible Supplier Relations Charter, the Responsible Supplier Relations Label is awarded by the company mediator (under the auspices of the French Ministry for the Economy) and the CDAF (French association of purchasing managers). Created in 2012, this label was awarded to 38 companies. Among those 38 awarded companies, there are 4 regional Caisses d’Epargne (Caisse d’Epargne Bretagne - Pays de La Loire, Caisse d’Epargne Ile de France, Caisse d’Epargne Lorraine Champagne-Ardennes, Caisse d’Epargne Midi-Pyrenees)
The label is awarded for a period of three years, and an annual audit is performed to verify that best practices in responsible supplier relations (respect for supplier interests, integration of environmental and social criteria in procurement procedures, quality of supplier relations, etc.) are constantly applied by the entities that received the label. As part of this continuous improvement policy, the companies that received the label in 2015, namely Caisse d’Epargne Bretagne Pays de Loire and Caisse d’Epargne Lorraine Champagne-Ardenne, both received a positive rating in their first audit. The label, which has now been awarded to multiple Caisse d’Epargne, reflects the responsible procurement strategy coordinated and the integration of sustainable development at the center of the procurement policy and in relations with suppliers.
