Climate change affects all people and communities on our planet, and we all have a role to play in limiting its progression. We want to achieve CO2 neutrality by 2030.
Based on the most rigorous and conclusive scientific facts, we have established a route, validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and compatible with the reduction necessary to maintain global warming at 1.5 ° C. Faurecia's route corresponds to the Accord from Paris and is the most ambitious of the thresholds proposed by SBTi.
To achieve our goals, we partner with experts and invest in energy efficiency projects at our production sites. Our plan is based on three stages:
We are a Top Employer company
For the third consecutive year, Faurecia México received the Top Employer certification for its excellence in Human Resources practices.

“The greatest strength of Faurecia is the commitment, professionalism and diversity of the teams, united through a shared culture that allows them to achieve results and create value. Within Faurecia, employees can create a development plan. In them, the competences to be improved are identified and an action plan is drawn up. In addition, in some cases, geographic mobility and unique training programs are offered, including trainings through ”Faurecia University”. Complementing the wide range of development options are coaching and mentoring programs to encourage employees to become the leaders of tomorrow ”.

As part of our corporate social responsibility, Faurecia launches the Faurecia Foundation in 2019, to support innovative and future initiatives around 3 main pillars: education, mobility, and the environment.
The Faurecia Foundation aims to contribute to the construction of a fairer, more mobile and more environmentally friendly society in order to preserve the planet for future generations. Each year, Faurecia employees are invited to submit projects that have a social impact and require time or financial resources. Projects can be managed by our employees themselves or in partnership with non-profit organizations.
The Foundation also intervened in 2020, when the world was facing a major health crisis, providing donations to support research projects, local social professionals and charities working with the most vulnerable populations.

ReFauresta, a project where Faurecia, Una Nueva Esperanza and Humanife teams up for the same cause.
Through the Foundation and with the conviction that companies should have a positive impact on society, ReFauresta was born.
ReFauresta is the winning initiative by the North American region for the environment pillar. It’s a project for which we will build a greenhouse to produce endemic trees that will be used for reforestation in the state of Puebla.
For this, we have formed a great team! Together with Una Nueva Esperanza and Humanife, we want to stop deforestation. In addition, the money raised from the sale of these trees will be donated to Una Nueva Esperanza in support of children with cancer.

Encouraging employees to express themselves is the foundation of one of Faurecia's convictions: "counter-power creates value".
