For the third year running, Legrand received the Platinum EcoVadis medal, the highest distinction that rewards the Top 1% of the most successful companies in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) among all companies evaluated by EcoVadis.

For its assessment, EcoVadis refers to benchmark CSR standards, such as the UN Global Compact, ILO conventions, GRI standards, country laws and regulations and the ISO 26000 standard. The company's rating score is assessed through four dimensions of CSR performance: Environment, Ethics, Social and Human Rights, and Responsible Purchasing.

Obtaining this recognition attests to the Group's performance in terms of CSR. For the 'Environment' dimension, Legrand obtained a score of 90/100, which once again demonstrates the alignment of its climate strategy with the most ambitious objective of the Paris Agreement, aimed at limiting the global increase in temperatures to 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels and achieving carbon neutrality.
