AXA Gulf & Cooperative KSA 4th annual Corporate Responsibility Week: Protecting people by raising funds for risk education worldwide.

Since 2011, Corporate Responsibility Week (CR Week) has become an international reference in terms of employee engagement. Every year, AXA Group, Gulf & Cooperative in KSA involves more and more staff in its commitment to supporting risk education and prevention.

With more employees participating every year, 850 AXA employees in the Gulf region and the Kingdom, and 56,000 worldwide joined the event in 2013.

AXA Gulf and Saudi employees spend more than 1,600 hours in different CR activities to showing their commitment to their community.

During the week, AXA Gulf & Cooperative’s Saudi employees have learned about AXA’s corporate responsibility initiatives regionally, and were also invited to participate personally, by volunteering in different activities related to employees’ education, volunteering actions and sport activities.

Every hour spent volunteering for protection and prevention activities will be converted into euros and donated to risk education projects supported by AXA Hearts in Action.

“Our business is to protect people over the long term. In this business, trust and solid relationships are paramount. “Corporate Responsibility Week is part of AXA’s core business — protection. Protecting people is what we do every day and what is making us proud of our business. During the CR Week, AXA Gulf & Cooperative in KSA staff was engaged to be more responsible in the way they do business. This means designing reliable solutions to meet the needs of our customers, managing risks in a professional way, treating our partners fairly, and developing a work environment built on strong values and trust,” said Jerome Droesch, AXA Gulf CEO.
