Key Areas

For this year, we’ve identified five key areas to focus our 
CR activities:

  • Environment – We leverage our business to help the world be better prepared to face climate risk, through funding researches and taking tactical measures to reduce our own carbon footprint
  • Health – We partner with our customers to develop their health prevention measures, with screenings and check-ups to help them track their health
  • Disability – AXA is committed to promoting inclusivity. Our work environments are built to treat all of our employees with respect without discrimination, and to provide additional support to those who require it
  • Social welfare – In addition to providing work opportunities to those with mental and physical challenges, we support charities and social initiatives that focus upon giving back to society
  • Education – To aid the advancement of the next workforce generation and help people lead better lives, we at AXA promote various initiatives that support education

At AXA, we have a dedicated platform called CR week, where our employees volunteer and carry out initiatives in the above mentioned areas during paid working hours throughout the year. Through such initiatives, corporate funding and more, we ensure that AXA’s commitment to corporate social responsibility stays strong and all employees receive the opportunity and encouragement to give back to society.
