OUR COMMITMENT Home About Us Social Responsibility Our Commitment OUR COMMITMENT At TC Transcontinental, our desire to contribute to the development of sustainable business practices is firmly rooted in our values. Over time and through our quest for long-term profitable growth, we have nurtured an integrated approach to corporate social responsibility (CSR). From our first Environmental Policy in 1993, to the 2012 update of our Paper Purchasing Policy and the release of our successive three-year CSR plans, we have shown, and continue to show, proven leadership in this regard. Our commitment is framed within a well-defined CSR governance structure. Our Steering Committee, comprised of members representing all our business sectors, defines priorities, establishes performance metrics and ensures the Corporation strives towards achieving its objectives by executing on its plans. We know that our stakeholders’ contribution is integral to our approach and to our continuity. Therefore, in 2018, we put in place a large-scale stakeholder consultation program on sustainability issues, as we had done in 2015. We surveyed our employees, suppliers, customers and investors to determine several social responsibility issues of interest to them. Our 2019-2021 CSR Plan entitled Acting Together unveils 11 specific and quantifiable targets, with respect to four axes. We are committed to publishing annual progress reports to disclose our data and outline our progression relative to established performance indicators.
