Integrated Annual Report 2024

As global challenges grow more complex, dialogue between companies and their stakeholders is more crucial than ever. Air Liquide fosters active dialogue and collaboration with employees, customers, investors and shareholders, as well as with public authorities and local communities to create value and drive positive impact. In this discussion, key stakeholders share their perspectives on how the Group’s commitments align with their ambitions and contribute to meaningful change.

Many of Air Liquide’s solutions help address today’s societal challenges. How do you feel about this statement?

Fatima Tighlaline : Fully aligned! Air Liquide is driving the energy transition with advancements in CO₂ capture and low-carbon hydrogen production. In Healthcare, the Group provides essential medical gases and solutions to hospitals and home patients while also improving access to medical oxygen for underserved communities. Beyond our daily roles, by the end of 2025, all Air Liquide teams around the world will have the opportunity to get involved locally through the Citizen at Work program. I recently took over responsibility for this program, and I can already attest to the Group’s strong commitment and energy in encouraging employees to engage in local initiatives. Another strong example: Air Liquide had set a goal to provide social coverage for 100% of its employees by 2025. This objective has been achieved one year ahead of schedule, a significant social milestone!
