Employees’ view: My EDF engagement 3.6.4.6 survey At the end of the first “My EDF” internal engagement survey conducted in November 2012 involving all Group employees, a plan to issue results to employees was implemented. The companies drew up action plans to increase or introduce improvement measures based on the results observed within their scope. This process has been repeated every year since. The sixth survey was taken in September and October 2017. A major internal communication campaign was organised to encourage employees to express their opinion (videos, posters and communication kit). Employee participation (77% and nearly 103,500 respondents), a marked increase from the first year (63%), demonstrates the interest of Group employees in this REPORTING SYSTEM 3.7.1 Reporting falls within the framework of the obligations of the French NRE law, Article 225 of the Grenelle 2 law (application decree of 24 April 2012) and Article 173 of the Energy Transition law (application decree of 19 August 2016). The Group is engaged in a progressive process to have the reliability of its social, environmental and societal indicators and information verified by the Statutory Auditors, initially on a volunteer basis since 2007 and since 2013 in compliance with Article L. 225-102-1 of the French Commercial Code.
