BUSINESS ETHICS: A STRONGER STRUCTURE

Operating in 18 countries, Zodiac Aerospace is pursuing a strategy of responsible growth in accordance with international, national and local laws, as well as ethical principles of integrity, honesty, fairness and protection that guide its strategy, work methods and relationship with its stakeholders. Largely inspired by the values of humility, realism, an entrepreneurial spirit and respect, which shape the Group's culture, these principles apply to all employees. Presented in our Ethics Code, these principles have provisions with regard to the fight against corruption and the prevention of conflicts of interests. These provisions were strengthened in 2013 and will be completed in 2014 with an e-learning training program on ethics and business illustrated by actual situations. A charter for management is also in development.

Engaged and satisfied employees

During the summer of 2013, all employees of Zodiac Aerospace worldwide were consulted via an internal poll conducted by the Ipsos research firm. The particularly high response rate (77%) reflects the strong commitment of the employees. 83% are proud to work for the Group and 66% feel positively about their quality of life at work. The key expectations are on communication and training. After deeper analysis of the results, progress initiatives will be rolled out in 2014.
