CSR pillars
Responsible education
BSB students are trained specific modules to have an in-depth understanding of all it encompasses. Transversal methods are used and CSR is integrated into more than 50% of our courses to cover crucial topics such as the environment, ethics, responsible leadership and sustainable finance, etc.
Engaged research
To make concrete impact on society, the work of the Center for Business Research (CEREN) works to meet economic, social and environmental challenges. Several CSR research chairs have been created since 2003: microfinance, corporate governance, responsible management, evolution of economic models in the food industry.
Inclusive social policy
BSB's social policy encompasses values of global responsibility: equal opportunities, solidarity, diversity, well-being, etc. It is based on One Health Center with several measures for personalised student support at different stages of their studies, Mission Handicap to support students with disabilities and BSB Foundation for students facing financial difficulties.
Environmental management
BSB is fully committed to a global approach to reduce its environmental footprint.
This is achieved through recycling, responsible purchasing, and constant improvements in energy performance. A carbon assessment is in progress in order to develop a reduced energy consumption plan.
Professional equality
BSB's commitments to professional equality between women and men are measured via Its professional equality index, established by the Law for the freedom to choose one's professional future.
LThe professional equality index was established by the Law for the freedom to choose one's professional future.
For BSB, this index for 2023 is 87 points out of 100.
This indicator is composed as follows:
- Pay gap: 27 points
All other indicators are at maximum
- Difference in individual increases: 35 points
- Percentage of employees receiving a raise after returning from maternity leave: 15 points
- Number of employees of the underrepresented sex among the 10 highest paid employees: 10 points
This value demonstrates the reality of the commitments made by BSB, in particular in the Professional equality action plan between women and men renewed for 2023-2024.
Commitment and governance
BSB takes part in national and international initiatives to meet current societal challenges and by sharing the results of its actions. In particular, it is a signatory of:
