The Caisse and Sustainable Development

A Commitment of Long Date

The Caisse has been firmly committed to sustainable development for several years. Moreover, it has played a leadership role in this area with the positions and initiatives it has taken, as shown by the innovative measures that follow.

Its vision encompasses all aspects of sustainable development, whether social, economic or environmental. It is only natural that the Caisse endorses the concept of sustainability, since its mission is to ensure both the longevity of the pension and insurance plans whose funds it manages and long-term economic development.

The Caisse is furthering this commitment in 2009 by making public its first Sustainable Development Action Plan, which sets out its actions for 2009-2011. The plan is based on best practices and is in line with the directions and objectives defined in Québec’s Sustainable Development Act.
