Citizen of the Planet
At Teleperformance, we take responsibility for the social and environmental impacts of our business operations.

Citizen of the Planet: A Global Corporate Initiative
It is our commitment to minimize negative environmental impacts by acting in a sustainable manner to ensure future generations have the ability to meet their own needs. Citizen of the Planet (COTP) is a global corporate initiative implemented in 2008, aimed at ensuring that Teleperformance operates in an environmentally friendly and responsible manner.
In a combined effort, we commit to helping our planet by improving facilities to create sustainable sites (i.e., water, paper, and other waste reductions) and strive for paperless environments, as well as recycling and incentivizing energy and atmosphere improvements. Teleperformance encourages its sites to continuously improve their impact on their local habitats.
A key focus is to track and minimize our overall carbon footprint per employee on a worldwide basis by reducing energy consumption, paper use and solid waste generation, air travel, and water use.
Teleperformance also invests in indoor environmental quality refinements, alternative transportation, and employee education and involvement to extend green efforts to their homes and neighborhoods in addition to the workplace.
In 2018, our total measured carbon emissions were 160,319 tons, with a carbon footprint per employee (CFE) of 0.712 tons.

Our volunteers from TP in Colombia planted trees at the mountainous area of Serranía del Majuy. Teleperformance cares for the environment, and together, we can do so much more.

Small actions lead to big change, and TP in Russia is all about this. Our team, together with the townspeople, cleaned up one of their favorite summer spots. It was a productive and well-supported initiative.
