Reasonable assurance on a selection of CSR information Nature and scope of our work With regard to the information selected by the Company and identified with the symbol √, we conducted the same procedures as those described in the paragraph “Nature and scope of our work”. However, these procedures were more in-depth, particularly regarding the number of tests. Consequently, the selected sample represents 98% of headcount and 65% of direct CO 2 emissions (scope 1) from electricity and heat production (including installations not subject to quotas). We believe that these procedures enable us to express reasonable assurance regarding the information selected by the Company and identified with the symbol √. Conclusion In our opinion, the information selected by the Company and identified with the symbol √ has been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the Guidelines.
We believe that the sampling methods and sample sizes we have used, based on our professional judgment, are sufficient to provide a basis for our limited assurance opinion. A higher level of assurance would have required us to carry out more extensive procedures. Due to the use of sampling techniques and other limitations inherent to information and internal control systems, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement in the Statement cannot be totally eliminated. Means and resources Our work drew on the skills of twelve individuals. To assist us in conducting our work, we called on our firm’s sustainable development and corporate social responsibility specialists. We conducted about 40 interviews with the individuals responsible for preparing the Statement. Opinion Based on our work, and given the scope of our responsibilities, we have no material misstatements to report that would call into question the Statement’s compliance with the applicable regulatory provisions, or the fair presentation of the information, taken as a whole, in accordance with the Guidelines.
