- The Société de transport de Montréal ranks customer service at the top of its priorities and expects its employees to fully support this commitment and the directions taken to fulfill it.
- Safety is critical at the STM, and no compromise endangering safety will be accepted
- Serving clients with respect and dignity is another objective to which the STM is committed, and, to this end, employees must serve as its ambassadors in both their conduct and their attitudes. Employees must also be sensitive to the diversity and multiculturalism of the public served by the STM, and no form of racial profiling will be tolerated.
