2021 UNIVERSAL REGISTRATION DOCUMENT

PARTNER OF CITIES AND REGIONS

— VINCI companies are firmly rooted in their regions. They contribute to the growth of economic activity, employment and tax take. Their businesses have led them to develop a strong culture of consultation and proven expertise in collective project governance, closely involving all the stakeholders concerned: elected officials, non-profits, local residents and users. VINCI’s ambition is to build projects with them that create value for all their stakeholders and contribute fully to the development of the regions.

— Priority is on working with local suppliers and subcontractors, especially SMEs, to make a lasting and inclusive contribution to regional growth. This sourcing strategy aligns smoothly with the responsible purchasing policy. Consistent with the Group’s commitments, this policy is based on identifying risks, considering non-financial criteria in purchasing decisions, and supporting suppliers and subcontractors in their social and environmental practices.

RESPECT FOR HUMAN RIGHTS

— In all countries where it operates, VINCI has a responsibility to prevent risks of human rights violations. The Group pays particular attention to five areas: recruitment practices and migrant labour, working conditions, living conditions, practices relating to subcontractors and temporary employment agencies, and relations with local communities. For each of these areas, guidelines have been included in VINCI’s Guide on Human Rights, available in 24 languages. This document applies to all VINCI businesses and locations. Additional tools are available to help identify risks aligned with actual operating conditions. Since 2018, 72% of the Group’s employees in high-priority countries have been covered by a human rights compliance assessment.

— In Qatar, the pilot project to improve recruitment practices for migrant workers led by the subsidiary QDVC with the International Labour Organisation (ILO) was completed in 2021. The results of this project were published. With the ILO, VINCI regularly reports to other companies, institutions and customers on the takeaways and positive impacts of this approach. In addition, under the framework of an agreement signed in 2017 between VINCI, QDVC and Building and Wood Workers’ International (BWI), a new audit concerning workers’ rights on Qatari construction sites was conducted in the presence of all the stakeholders and VINCI trade union representatives. A joint report will be published in 2022.

— VINCI regularly discusses its human rights policy with its multiple stakeholders (employee representatives, employees, investors, students, NGOs, research centres, etc.). It is also involved in initiatives such as Building Responsibly and Business for Inclusive Growth (B4IG). For the third time, the Group took part in the Workforce Disclosure Initiative’s survey of companies asking them to share key information about the labour force and their subcontracting and supply chains. VINCI achieved a transparency score well above the average for its sector.

— In partnership with the European Federation of Building and Woodworkers, VINCI has participated in the development of a toolkit aimed at strengthening the ways European works council representatives can take action to prevent social risks in construction company supply chains.

SOCIAL DIALOGUE

— At the Group level as well as in its business lines and companies, VINCI ensures the quality of social dialogue with trade unions and employee representatives, in order to give meaning to the company’s collective purpose. Labour representatives are involved in the development and implementation of health and safety policies, the management of jobs and career paths, as well as equal opportunity. Within each entity, close relations that are relevant and adapted to each business carve out a real role for labour representatives to play.

— The European Works Council and the Group Works Council (covering France) met 23 times in 2021. Their members benefit from training in health and safety, human rights and the environment.
