Balancing private and professional life – The situation today

More and more employees today seek a balance between their private and professional lives. On an individual level, this balance is important for personal development, while for businesses it is a strategic choice. When policy and corporate culture contribute to reconciling family and professional life, they help attract, motivate and retain employees.  

Sanofi-aventis undertakes to respect its employees' private lives (Social Charter, article 7) and, as much as possible, to provide conditions that allow employees to reconcile their professional and private lives, in accordance with local practices and circumstances. Sanofi-aventis encourages local initiatives (at the country and even site level) on this issue in order to better respond to employees' needs.
