The vessel will make 35 stops during its voyage, which will end in July 2021, contributing to scientific knowledge, awareness-raising and education about sustainability issues. During the year, the Group was involved in the restoration of the Salle du Sacre at the Palace of Versailles, France, which was completed for the launch of an exhibition on Louis-Philippe and Versailles in October 2018. The “cubism” exhibition at Centre Pompidou, Paris, sponsored by Plastic Omnium, also opened in October 2018. CARE FOR PEOPLE 3.2.2 Care for people RESPONSIBLE MANAGEMENT 3.2.2.1 The current economic environment is uncertain and unpredictable. Therefore, the Group has decided to think ahead by mobilizing management teams during the “Top 100” following which the savings plans were launched. The Group’s responsible, local management system means that all Division managers can be involved of changes and decisions in real time. Responsible Human Resources management is crucial in a large Group such as Plastic Omnium that operates across diverse locations to ensure compliance with international labor standards and respect for human rights. In its Code of Conduct, and by joining the United Nations Global Compact, the Group is committed to respecting and promoting human rights, and strives to ensure that its employees, wherever they are based, have safe, healthy working conditions and that their fundamental freedoms are respected. The Code of Conduct confirms the freedom of employees to work for Plastic Omnium and leave it, as well as the prohibition of employing persons aged under 15 (18 for high-risk roles), in line with the International Labor Organization standards, and without prejudice to local legislation that offers a higher degree of protection. The Group favors permanent employment contracts to meet its needs. In 2018, the Group sold its Environment Division and absorbed all employees from HBPO, in which Plastic Omnium now holds a majority stake.
