L'Air Liquide - Assemblée Générale des actionnaires du 5 mai 2020
Rémunérations
La politique de rémunération 2020 du Président Directeur Général comprend l’ajout d’un critère relatif aux émissions de carbone aux conditions de performance de la rémunération long-terme, ce que Proxinvest accueille favorablement, mais également l’ajout un contrat d’assurance-retraite complétant le régime à prestations définies dont les droits sont gelés. Ce nouveau régime, bien que présentant un cout moindre, demeure excessif et ne respecte pas notre politique de vote, M. Potier étant déjà largement rémunéré. Or, l’approbation de cette nouvelle politique de rémunération vaudrait approbation de ce contrat d’assurance-retraite. Ainsi, puisque, selon Proxinvest, le dirigeant est déjà largement bien rémunéré, que sa retraite chapeau de 639 267€ par an sera suffisante et qu’il ne sert à rien de créer ce nouveau régime de retraite chapeau complémentaire, nous ne soutenons pas la résolution 11.
Crise sanitaire mondiale

En effet, Air Liquide, Groupe PSA, Schneider Electric et Valeo, répondant à la demande du Gouvernement, se sont engagés à produire 10 000 respirateurs Air Liquide Medical Systems (ALMS) entre avril et mi-mai (/fr/magazine/sante/10-000-respirateurs-50-jours-sauver-vies).
