Be more ethical, suppliers! That was the message from Martinet as the automaker told its 14 largest suppliers to endorse ethical commitments. Why does Peugeot Citroën care? Because it wants the company to be brought into compliance with the UN Global Compact’s 10 principles and the International Labour Organisation’s (ILO) recommendations for good practice. If this were a textile or a coffee company, it wouldn’t be news. But since it is an automaker, it’s a whole new arena.
