INCLUSION RENAULT: A RESPONSIBLE COMPANY

Ongoing local social dialog  EFPD4b   EFPD4c  C. The Group’s momentum on employee-related issues around the world is demonstrated by the number of agreements newly entered into and/or renewed in all countries, which also attests to the ongoing drive by the Group’s Senior Management and social partners to negotiate agreements that satisfy the long-term interests of both the Company and its employees. In France: The “Agreement for the sustainable performance of Renault in France” (CAP 2020), signed on January 13, 2017 by the CFDT, CFE-CGC and FO, continued to serve as an important point of reference for the new Renault Drive the Future strategic plan. It is based on three areas: customer satisfaction, sustainable performance and motivation of the Company’s women and men. The agreement incorporates business and performance commitments that include: making the French plants a benchmark for the Group; P securing the business outlook until end-2019; P providing significant Research and Development investment; P specific efforts to strengthen engineering resources in France. P These commitments are supported by an effective and motivating employment policy based on significant social dialog at both a central and local level to build sustainable performance. The amendment signed on April 16, 2018 notably enabled: the commitment to hire new permanent employees in France P between 2017-2019 was increased from 3,600 to 5,000; an additional €15 million investment in the professional training P plan; a voluntary work exemption plan. P During its final year of implementation, the results of this agreement were positive, with in particular: slightly more than 6,000 permanent recruitments, including 1,320 P in 2019; the target of integrating 1,000 people on work/study contracts P being achieved; investments in training exceeding commitments made; P significant investments to improve plant working environments; P continuity for the Technocentre modernisation program. P After having committed to a joint reflection period on the issues to follow CAP 2020, the social partners agreed to commit to negotiations on a method agreement from the start of 2020. We can also note the signature of several significant agreements: On February 7, 2019, an agreement was signed with the CFDT, P CFE-CGC, CGT and FO Unions on new working methods, and telecommuting in particular. This agreement has enabled Renault SAS to increase its telecommuter numbers from 3,500 to 10,000.

On August 2, 2019, a new gender equality and diversity agreement P was signed for the entire Renault SAS scope. This agreement refers in particular to the global framework agreement on quality of life at work, signed worldwide on July 9, 2019. Lastly, another crucial element in social dialog, the agreement promoting social dialog and encouraging the exercise and promotion of union responsibilities at Renault, signed on July 17, 2018, came into force in 2019 with, in particular, the finalization of the Social and Economic Committee (SEC) election cycle and the creation of the Central Social and Economic Committee (CSEC). In the Americas region: In a context of high social, economic and political tension in South American countries, the regional management and local social partners strived to: offset for the effects of inflation (four specific agreements in P Argentina ); adapt the organization of work to take into account market P declines (two agreements in Argentina); improve the quality of life at work (agreement on paid vacations P for births and/or baptisms in Argentina, protocol agreement on quality of life at work in Brazil ); renew the local collective agreements ( Chile ).
