7.1 Environmental indicators
The indicators hereafter have a Group scope. They illustrate our
industrial and logistics sites’ environmental consumption, emission,
and waste in addition to certain major tertiary sites.
Schneider Electric provides readers two pieces of information so
that environmental performance can be compared from one year
to another :
• one part publishing constant scope indicators;
ISO 14001 certification of sites
REGISTRATION DOCUMENT 2011 SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC
• and another part publishing indicators per employee to correct the
changes in the company’s activities. The sites’ workforce includes
Schneider Electric employees (Fixed-term, Permanent, Workstudy
participants), temporary staff, and on-site subcontractors.
The table below indicates how the indicators correspond with the
Global Reporting Initiative.
Comments on the indicators are included in the corresponding
chapters .
