Fiat S.p.A. publishes 2011 Sustainability Report

The Report is a voluntary document produced by the Group to provide stakeholders a comprehensive picture of the activities carried out, results achieved and commitments made in the economic, environmental and social spheres.

For the third year running, the Report has achieved the maximum Application Level (A+) of the new GRI-G3.1 guidelines released in March 2011.

The Report is organized into three main sections: the first illustrates the Group's strategic approach to sustainability through the Sustainability Plan; the second reports on initiatives in the economic dimension; the third and fourth sections report respectively on Environmental and Social performance. The last section provides additional information relating to the key indicators.
