In 2018, SUEZ tested the importance of its various commitments to its public and private-sector customers and prospective customers, employees and citizens, surveying nearly 2,000 people. The study, conducted in six key markets (France, the UK, Spain, the USA, Australia and China), is part of commitment 12 in the SUEZ 2017-2021 Roadmap: sustain trust by reinforcing dialogue with stakeholders.

It shows that responsible citizenship and governance are essential markers of SUEZ s reputation, which is globally viewed more highly than the average for companies in the sector according to the Reputation Institute criteria. The commitments considered to be priorities in the 2017-2021 Roadmap relate to employee health and safety, the circular economy, the development of 100% sustainable solutions, protecting the health of the environment and oceans and adapting to the impact of climate change on water.
