(Marketwire) - Today Bombardier Inc. (TSX: BBD.A)(TSX:BBD.B) released its third corporate social responsibility report entitled Deepening our Commitment. The report captures the company's ongoing commitment to act responsibly as a public company, employer, neighbour and partner. The report stresses the importance of embedding sustainability not only in the company's products, but also in our culture and mindset for the years to come.

"Our employees remain at the heart of our success. Nowhere is this more evident than in the sphere of corporate social responsibility.

Building on last year's structure, the report is organized into six sections, reflecting both stakeholder feedback and the areas where Bombardier has the greatest responsibilities: governance, employees, products, operations, suppliers and responsible citizenship.
