The Group adopted a green travel policy for non-industrial vehicles, principally personal cars, to help reduce CO2 emissions.
The European subsidiaries are expected to meet a specific emission of 130 g CO2/km driven while non-European subsidiaries are committed to a yearly reduction of 10% of CO2 emissions by 2010.
The Italian subsidiary took the leadership by imposing a “carbon tax” on employees driving company cars with high emissions of CO2.
