This year’s highlights

include

Simple but meaningful

initiatives

The 2024 event saw an increase in participation rates, with

workshops fully booked as soon as they were announced.

Aurélie attributes this success to an inclusive organisational

approach and a programme that adapts to teams’ practical

needs: “The workshops are designed to take place during

breaks or directly in the workplace.”

Raising awareness for better action

The Climate Frescoes, implemented by the CSR department

via volunteer employees trained in house, were a central feature

of the event. These interactive training courses, which are

compulsory for all employees, provide a better understanding

of the impact of climate change. “We felt it was important that

everyone should have the opportunity to take part in these

frescoes, and the CSR team focused and mobilised ef forts to

ensure that the workshops were of fered during working time for

all employees,” says Aurélie. At the company’s head of f ice, 70%

of the workforce has already been trained.

Workshops on sustainable mobility, biodiversity, waste reduction

and sustainable nutrition have been set up, alongside activities

such as game and toy swaps, charity food and IT equipment

collections, events and conferences, with the aim of proposing

concrete solutions for taking action, both at work and at home.

Planting seeds

At Petzl the EWSSD embodies an approach which allows every

employee to get involved in meaningful actions Every action

counts What we are building together goes far beyond the

scope of these two weeks We are sowing little seeds Some

germinate quickly others take longer but they always end up

having an impact concludes Aurélie Gascon

and a programme tailored
