2021 UNIVERSAL REGISTRATION DOCUMENT

Sustainable development

implemented across three fronts:

  • ◗ Job retention: the Trajeo’h association supported almost 1,000 people with a disability (nearly 6,000 since 2014) into a new career path either within or outside the Group.
  • ◗ Recruitment: in 2021, VINCI created Habileo’h, an in-house recruitment consultancy and the Group’s first social mission company.
  • ◗ Use of sheltered companies: Group companies subcontracted work to the sheltered sector around the world, awarding total revenue of €6.6 million in 2021. They are aided in this approach by the Supplyeo’h platform.

— A new training course in inclusive management was introduced in 2021. Comprising four modules, it complements the existing training courses. In 2021, new content was added in English and Portuguese to the self-assessment tool used by Group companies to measure their effectiveness in reducing the risk of discrimination.

SOCIAL AND PROFESSIONAL INTEGRATION

— VINCI also seeks to hire the long-term unemployed, in particular through its ViE social enterprise structure, which manages over a million integration hours annually in France, that is half the total number of hours provided in the Group. ViE is committed to sustainable employability and supports Group companies and their partners in implementing the integration clauses associated with their projects, by putting them in touch with local specialised non-profits and structures, in order to build sustainable pathways back into employment. ViE applies an innovative approach to training centred on soft skills and mapping transferable skills and expertise.

— This approach is being trialled under a programme designed and funded by VINCI called Give Me Five. Introduced in France in 2018, the programme targets five areas of action: guidance, individual support, integration, employability and learning. Under the guidance area, in partnership with the French Ministry of Education, VINCI hosts several thousand middle school students each year from priority neighbourhoods (4,000 in all by the end of 2021) for work experience placements in Group companies. In 2021, under these internships – whose format was revised in 2020 due to health restrictions

— VINCI hosted more than 300 middle school students with disabilities from local academic inclusion units (Ulis) in partnership with Trajeo’h.

— More than 1,000 middle school students benefited from a personalised support programme launched in three pilot areas in partnership with the non-profits Viens voir mon taf, Institut Télémaque, Crée ton avenir and Unis-Cité.

— In terms of integration, the regional employment strategy (Step), rolled out throughout France by ViE teams, enables dozens of young people at risk of exclusion to return to employment each year. Four new iterations of this programme were launched in 2021 in France (Essonne, Strasbourg, Marseille and Orléans).

— In partnership with JobIRL, France’s leading social network for career guidance, VINCI launched the apprenticeship component of the Give Me Five programme in 2021, to boost the recruitment of young apprentices through a platform specifically designed for finding training courses and work-study contracts in VINCI companies.

— Five social joint ventures created in recent years in France with specialised partners have continued to grow, employing people on social integration contracts in jobs in line with VINCI’s areas of business, such as construction site logistics and maintenance of living facilities and green spaces.

SOLIDARITY

— VINCI is committed to encouraging and supporting its employees’ and companies’ solidarity engagement, in particular through its foundations and financial support, and to supporting, in liaison with solidarity non-profits, projects that help strengthen social ties, and help the long-term unemployed back into employment. In 2021, VINCI’s 16 foundations allocated €6.2 million to 490 projects, sponsored by almost 1,330 employees. The citizen initiatives by the Group’s business lines, divisions and companies supplement this system. For example, through the Issa programme Sogea-Satom, a VINCI Construction subsidiary in Africa, works with the regions and their communities in the vicinity of worksites, by supporting numerous initiatives in the areas of education, health, energy and food self-sufficiency, access to water and local craftsmanship.
