Corporate Citizenship
Gemalto not only complies with all relevant
legislation in thecountries in which we do business, but, believing that we have
a duty to contribute to the lives of the communities in which we operate, also
strives to do better than this. This involvement can take many forms, from
supporting local schools to promoting sustainable development and encouraging a
healthier lifestyle or safer driving.
Among
many examples, in Mexico we offer pupils with outstanding grades a grant to
support them in school for the following year. Both of our factories there also
support a variety of causes from local schools and an old people’s home to
national charities. Employees and the company give support by donating toys,
food and clothes.
In Brazil, our Curitiba plant organizes an annual campaign in aid of local
charities. It also supports a center providing vocational training for
teenagers, and runs a campaign to recruit, train and hire disabled employees.Our
São Paulo sales office, meanwhile, collects toys and clothes for two
neighborhood charity schools.
In Poland, employees support a primary school with stationery, as well as an
orphanage and an association for handicapped children. Promoting sustainable
development is a major focus of our involvement in France, and a Sustainable
Development Week, supported by many of our sites, focused on ecological
commuting, organic food and energy conservation. In the area of health and
fitness, Gemalto continued to sponsor the Marseille-Cassis International Half
Marathon, with more than 100 of its European employees competing. In the US we
have a growing presence in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, supporting
cancer research.
At our facility in Pennsylvania, US, employees took part in a food drive for the
local homeless shelter/soup kitchen and raised money for a local charity.
Finally, staff in Ontario, Canada supported a food bank this Easter and provided
food and gifts for underprivileged families.
