This is a new reporting structure for 2020. This is a reflection of the Invent The Future Strategy restructure which includes new business units and the creation of a Shared Services Center (Group BIC Services). Comparisons year to year will become available in the future.

Breakdown of the workforce by age 3.4.1.2 The breakdown of generations was modified this year, so there is no comparison to 2019. However, as with prior years, all age groups are represented.

Recruitment and terminations 3.4.1.3 The Group enhances awareness of BIC in the international employment market using global recruitment attraction tools such as LinkedIn, Glassdoor and Indeed. The Group also partners with internationally known specialized recruitment companies. In recent years, BIC has reinforced its managers’ expertise in recruitment techniques and has developed a more efficient selection and tracking process. Specifically, the Group utilizes a global applicant tracking system, SmartRecruiters, to implement interview processes shown to decrease bias in the selection process by focusing solely on skills and experience needed to perform the job. BIC has also implemented internal training webinars to educate the recruitment and human resources communities on the recruitment process and best practices in hiring. Monthly calls are held for the global human resources community highlighting recruitment and talent acquisition projects and process changes. These sessions provide an opportunity for timely reviews of important recruitment topics and allow our human resources community to share ideas on global best practices. Globally, in the event of staff restructuring that results in job cuts and terminations of profiles that are not adapted to the future business, Group policy is to respect local legal obligations as a minimum, in cooperation with social partners. Moreover, BIC strives to reassign teammembers whenever possible.
