The operational departments of VINCI’s business lines are responsible for the integrity and reliability of non-financial data. The Environment, Human Resources, Social Responsibility and Ethics and Vigilance departments are in charge of:
Sustainability auditors present their observations, if any, on the sustainability report to the Audit Committee before it is presented to the Board of Directors.
Environmental, social and governance data are produced internally by a network of ESG representatives trained in internal control requirements. VINCI’s non-financial performance is monitored via reporting tools that are also used for financial reporting.
The ESG teams at the business units and divisions regularly perform internal and external audits. In 2025, five ESG audits were carried out jointly by the Environment and Human Rights teams and the Audit Department. In addition, the Audit Department conducts an annual self-assessment of internal control relating to the following areas: the internal control environment, financial and accounting information, the environment, human rights, compliance and IT security (see paragraph 2.4, “Internal control”, of chapter D, “Risk factors and management procedures”, page 182). The 2025 questionnaire included specific questions on the implementation of the CSRD.
The environmental risk monitoring policy is translated into operational guidelines in the business lines. Each business line establishes a road map taking into account the specific nature of its activities and geographies, with the aim to drive continuous improvement. In subsidiaries, chief executives and senior management are in charge of ensuring regulatory compliance and the implementation of risk prevention procedures in their operational scope, taking into account their specific activities and challenges. They are assisted by the network of environment officers, who provide environmental expertise.
VINCI encourages its subsidiaries to obtain environmental certification such as ISO 14001 to improve the effectiveness of their environmental management system, which involves:

In addition, ISO 9001, which is a core standard for audits, also covers all aspects relating to the management, selection, monitoring and assessment of subcontractors. Upon completion of an audit, observations are shared with the heads of the relevant project and the audit report is sent to management at every level.
The VINCI Autoroutes concession companies with operations activities are ISO 45001 certified. The aspects covered and audited as part of this certification include company policy, leadership and management engagement, employee participation, training and awareness, work preparation and organisation, risk prevention for external companies, regulatory compliance, accident management, and the management of materials, equipment and products. For more information on the Group’s health and safety certification process, see paragraph 2.6, “Assessing the situation of subsidiaries, subcontractors and suppliers”, of chapter F, “Duty of vigilance plan”, page 302.
The Diversity label is awarded by an outside organisation (Afnor Certification, in France). The certification process examines action plans focused on preventing discrimination, promoting inclusion and diversity, and respecting equality. A number of VINCI companies in France have been awarded this label, including all the VINCI Autoroutes entities. Several entities have been certified in other countries by organisations such as the National Centre for Diversity in the United Kingdom, Aenor in Spain and Charta der Vielfalt in Germany. VINCI has also offered the possibility for its companies outside France to implement the gender equality index, as defined under French regulations, to support their efforts in this area. By the end of 2024, this initiative had been rolled out in 153 of the 452 eligible companies with more than 50 employees across 27 countries.
