Committed to continuous improvement
The complex global environment in which Thales operates requires companies to comply with increasingly stringent standards and assume a growing responsibility for their business practices.
Thales attaches the utmost importance to ethical behavior and compliance with ethical standards. This commitment applies equally to customers, suppliers, shareholders, financial markets, and employees, as well as to civil society and the environment.
Thales has taken a number of steps to meet these requirements, and a range of different measures are now in place thanks to the unflagging commitment of thousands of company employees. As a result, Thales maintains the respect of its customers and partners as a responsible world market leader.
Thales constantly strives to improve its procedures and internal control measures, and to ensure that every employee fully understands the implications of this responsibility and assumes ownership of the associated risks. The company acts on any instances of noncompliance to further refine internal rules and processes.
The entire company is committed to this process of continuous improvement. Thales believes this is the only way to build the long-term, trust-based relationships that are central to the concept of corporate social responsibility-and that underpin the company's future growth and development.
