RESPONSABILITÉ SOCIALE DE L’ENTREPRISE
With operations in North America and employees around the world, we recognize the impact and responsibility our businesses have—and prioritize the overall well-being of our employees, customers and the communities.
Corporate programs
At Veritiv, giving back to our community is not simply a value-add⏤it is a core responsibility⏤one that contributes to the well-being of our people, our business and our planet. Driven by our core values and Veritiv Connects, our community and philanthropy program, Veritiv proudly partners with Junior Achievement and the American Red Cross. We focus our efforts on corporate giving and employee volunteer efforts to help shape the success of the hundreds of communities where we live and work.
Junior Achievement (Réalisations des jeunes)
Veritiv partners with Junior Achievement (JA) to provide middle and high school students with business knowledge and skills they need to plan for their futures. The Veritiv Design Team created a Veritiv storefront in an Atlanta-area JA Discovery Center to teach students through real-world experience how packaging design and distribution work.
Veritiv employees volunteer for in-person mentoring with students at JA Discovery Centers and 3DE schools, a joint venture between Fulton County Schools and JA of Georgia to re-engineer high school education.
American Red Cross
Veritiv’s team members volunteer with the American Red Cross to aid in relief efforts. The team regularly makes financial contributions, organizes blood drives, and donates comfort kits to aid those in need after natural disasters and home fires.
Our teams also support the Red Cross home fire campaign, “Sound the Alarm”, where the Red Cross and volunteers install free smoke alarms and helps families create escape plans in at-risk communities.
In 2019, Veritiv donated a Humanitarian Services Vehicle to aid Red Cross volunteers by transporting materials and provide much-needed support to families.
Local communities
Our people are our difference. Our culture is not only shaped by who we are, but also what we do. Together we work on company-wide initiatives and ones that are closer to our local communities.
Across the U.S. and Mexico, our teams make a difference through food bank donations, community clean-up projects, toy donations, building houses for those in need, winter clothing drives, and more.
One team making a difference
A defining part of our Veritiv culture is our volunteer spirit—turning our Veritiv Values into action. Our people not only give their time and talents to better our Veritiv team and that of our customers; they also give back to their communities.

Employees helping employees
Funded by employee contributions, the One Veritiv Fund provides short-term financial relief to eligible Veritiv employees who have suffered significant hardship as a result of unforeseen events such as natural disaster, medical emergency, military deployment, or a pandemic.
What grant recipients and donors say about the One Veritiv Fund:
Leslie H. received a grant when she and her family suffered a house fire that was a complete loss.
“If it were not for the contributions and the most generous employees, the assistance I received would not have been possible. It was an amazing blessing that I had the One Veritiv Fund, as well as the Veritiv family.”
Human rights policy
We comply with the laws and regulations of the states, provinces and countries in which we operate. We also conduct our business operations in ways that seek to respect, protect and promote the full range of human rights.

Sécurité
Les employés devraient avoir un milieu de travail sécuritaire et productif. Notre approche Objectif zéro symbolise notre objectif d’éliminer tous les dangers non identifiés et existants qui peuvent entraîner des blessures. Tous les employés sont habilités et encouragés à identifier les points à améliorer. In 2018, our Total Incident Rate (TIR)1 for our operations in North America was 0,99.
Lancé en 2017, SCORE (S’arrêter, Considérer, Observer, Réagir et Exécuter) facilite la communication avec les travailleurs sur la façon d’aborder les tâches quotidiennes, indépendamment de la façon dont la tâche peut être routinière. MHE SAFE se concentre sur l’utilisation sécuritaire de l’équipement de manutention des matériaux.
¹ Le TTI est calculé à l’aide des critères de l’OSHA pour le caractère enregistrable et des méthodes de calcul de l’OSHA.
Durabilité
Veritiv is building a responsible platform to deliver sustainable, innovative products and solutions. We strive to create a healthier, safer and more efficient community for the wellbeing of our people, our planet and our business. Whether you’re just starting out on your sustainable journey, or you’re simply trying to scale it, we can help.
