The Group’s primary responsibility in relation to its employees is to ensure their health and safety in the workplace. Aware of the risks involved in their activities, companies organise their production and operating processes around this priority, which includes external personnel, partners and customers. Profitability should never, under any circumstances, take precedence over the essential need for protection. In this context, in June 2022, VINCI was one of the companies to sign on as a member of the Global Alliance for Healthy and Safe Workplaces led by Building and Wood Workers’ International to support the addition of occupational health and safety to the International Labour Organisation’s framework of fundamental principles and rights at work.
Moreover, safety is a major goal for VINCI, with a number one priority: achieving zero accidents. Reiterated in the VINCI Manifesto, the goal applies to all individuals – employees, temporary staff or subcontractors – working on a VINCI construction or operating site. Upon taking office in May 2025, the Group’s Chief Executive Officer reaffirmed both the Manifesto and the joint declaration entitled “Essential and Fundamental Actions Concerning Occupational Health and Safety”, which provides a reference framework for VINCI’s approach (https://www.vinci.com/publi/manifeste/sst-2017-06-en.pdf) This document sets out the key actions to be taken and reaffirms the shared conviction that safety is everyone’s responsibility. This Group framework document was initially signed in 2017 by the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and the Secretary of the European Works Council.
The Group health and safety prevention programmes presented below are set out in detail in section 2, “Duty of vigilance with regard to health and safety”, of chapter F, “Duty of vigilance plan”, pages 296 to 303.
Managers in particular are responsible for promoting a shared health and safety culture. The Group ensures this through a special focus on training. VINCI is also working to better engage its stakeholders across its value chain around health and safety, and supports its subcontractors with their own improvement initiatives.
Health and safety issues are covered during every Executive Committee meeting. The heads of each business line report on any serious or fatal accidents that may have occurred, their causes and the lessons learned. These matters are also discussed during meetings of the management committees of the Group’s business lines and various entities, as well as by the Board of Directors.
Performance levels in this area are taken into account when determining the short- and long-term variable remuneration of Group executives and managers. The performance criteria have been further strengthened and now incorporate accident frequency and severity rates. As part of a collective approach, safety performance aspects are incorporated into a number of profit-sharing mechanisms.
Fatal accidents are monitored separately at the highest level within the Group every three months. Reporting is organised collectively, overseen by the Chief Executive Officer, to better disseminate the lessons learned, implement the necessary action plans, and prevent these incidents and accidents from reoccurring. At business line level, an analysis of hazardous situations is also carried out, based on serious accidents and potentially serious incidents that have occurred, among other factors.
