INCLUSION RENAULT: A RESPONSIBLE COMPANY
Agreement monitoring and implementation The Agreement, which “serves as a binding contractual basis for forthcoming local agreements”, is currently being rolled out to the Group’s business activities and regions. On November 19, 2019, an initial follow-up meeting was held in Boulogne-Billancourt, France, between managers and the Unions that were signatories to the Agreement and a representative from the IndustriALL Global Union. In Brazil, Renault do Brazil management drew up a memorandum of understanding with the social partners to formalize their mutual commitment to developing practices based on the five main areas of the Framework Agreement, and to enhance the quality of local social dialog on that basis. In October 2019, the new “Working together to build a Groupe Renault working environment” Global Framework Agreement in France won first prize for the most innovative collective agreement, awarded by the Assises du Droit Social (ADS). Promotion and respect for fundamental labor rights Groupe Renault is committed to complying with the principles set forth in the 1998 Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work prepared by the International Labor Organization (ILO): effective abolition of child labor; P elimination of all forms of forced or compulsory labor; P elimination of discrimination in respect of employment and P occupation; freedom of association and the right to collective P bargaining.

From July 26, 2001, Groupe Renault has also adhered to the universal principles of human rights set out in the United Nations Global Compact. In accordance with the Global Compact, Groupe Renault seeks, in particular, to combat all forms of corruption. Groupe Renault raises employee awareness of this issue via Groupe Renault’s code of ethics and different communication and/or training methods. Groupe Renault is also committed to complying with the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Companies, adopted on June 27, 2000, and updated in May 2011, and with ILO convention no. 158 of 1982. It also recognizes ISO 26000 as a benchmark. The vigilance plan for human rights and fundamental freedoms DV1a In accordance with the law no. 2017-399 dated March 27, 2017 on the duty of vigilance, the Group Human Resources, Corporate Social Responsability, Group Prevention and Protection, Group Ethics and Compliance, Purchasing and Health, Safety and Environment departments have continued their work, supported by regular talks with the Worldwide Group Works Council secretary. Pursuant to the ILO Application of International Labor Standards, additional vigilance was put in place, with feedback from the countries, from either the CSR department, local HR directors, social partners or Ethics officers. Based on this mapping, and the location of the Group’s sites worldwide, Renault decided to pay even greater attention to the application of ILO convention no. 100 (Equal Remuneration) and ILO convention no. 111 (Discrimination, Employment and Occupation). Assessment and monitoring of measures implemented DV2a The results of this additional vigilance are regularly assessed and monitored as part of annual follow-up meetings between the Groupe Renault Works Council and the Worldwide Group Works Council. Please note that two sections of the new 2019 Global Framework Agreement are devoted to the Group’s sustainable commitment to inclusion and respect for people. Actions to mitigate risks DV3a The Audit department now includes in its local audits, Human Resources practices on the knowledge of and compliance with Global Framework Agreements. In addition, training and outreach to local Ethics Committees is being studied. They are designed to enable, through an examination of risks at the level closest to the operations, better identification of at-risk situations in matters of human rights and provide appropriate solutions. Preparation is underway for training on fundamental social rights, to be delivered by the ILO’s Turin training center to members of the Group Works Council Restricted Committee, and in which the Ethics department will be involved. Effectiveness of measures DV5a The effectiveness of the measures put in place is measured, notably through the number of incidents that may be reported both by the internal professional whistle-blowing system and by the various stakeholders.
