R 4.1.3.2 2019-2021 CSR ROADMAP The 2019-2021 CSR roadmap, to be published in April 2019, will be Legrand’s fourth. It reasserts the Group’s commitment to sustainability in its business activities while setting out significant advances compared with previous roadmaps: W to make the Group more agile and responsive in this area, the 2019-2021 roadmap covers a three-year period. Quantitative targets are calculated with respect to end-2018 levels and are to be achieved by the end of 2021; W the roadmap is partly based on a materiality survey that was carried out for the first time at the international level in 2017. The survey’s methodology is explained in section 4.1.2.1; W it will actively contribute to the Group’s attainment of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as defined by the United Nations in 2015. The 2019-2021 roadmap is based around three areas of focus, which are divided into 10 key challenges for both stakeholders and the Group’s business development: Business Ecosystem W Provide sustainable solutions (SDG3 Good health and well-being, SDG9 Industry, innovation and infrastructure) W Ensure sustainable purchasing (SDG8 Decent work and economic growth) W Act ethically (SDG8 Decent work and economic growth) People W Respect human rights and communities (SDG7 Affordable and clean energy, SDG8 Decent work and economic growth, SDG10 Reduced inequalities) W Promote health, safety and well-being at work (SDG3 Good health and well-being, SDG8 Decent work and economic growth) W Develop skills (SDG4 Quality education) W Promote equal opportunities and diversity (SDG5 Gender equality, SDG10 Reduced inequalities) Environment W Limit greenhouse gas emissions (SDG12 Responsible consumption and production, SDG13 Climate action) W Innovate for a circular economy (SDG9 Industry, innovation and infrastructure, SDG12 Responsible consumption and production) W Combat pollution (SDG11 Sustainable cities and communities, SDG12 Responsible consumption and production).

Since 2007, Legrand has defined and coordinated its CSR strategy through multi-year roadmaps, built around the key issues of this strategy and their performance indicators. The first two roadmaps covered the periods 2007-2010 and 2011-2013. R 4.1.3.1 2014-2018 CSR ROADMAP In 2014, Legrand continued these efforts by publishing its third CSR roadmap for the period 2014-2018. It is based on the four strands and 10 key issues described below. It identifies 21 priorities for its various businesses and entities, to be achieved during the period 2014-2018.
