Presentation of the Group Integrated report GOOD GROWTH MOMENTUM FOR SHARED, LASTING DEVELOPMENT*

Towards more sustainable consumption behaviours Finally, L’Oréal wants to offer its consumers the possibility to make sustainable consumption choices. To this end, L’Oréal mobilises all its brands, for all Divisions confined, around two main levers of action: assessing and improving their environmental and social s footprint: L’Oréal’s laboratories, alongside the Development & Packaging teams and the RSE team, carry out analyses of the portfolio of formulas and packaging of each of the Group’s brands. Target: defining a sustainable innovation plan, which identifies drivers for improvement with regard to every one of its ranges and every one of its products and sets out an action plan. In 2017, this work was carried out with 91% of the Group’s brands; engagement alongside consumers: conscious of the ability s of its brands to mobilise their stakeholders – business partners, customers, consumers, the general public – around today’s major environmental and social causes, the Group pledged that everyone would identify a cause that they personally want to defend and undertake campaigns to raise awareness. In 2017, 46% of the brands conducted this type of action. Furthermore, since 2013, L’Oréal conducts quantitative and qualitative studies to gain a better understanding of what its consumers want and to identify the most engaging manner to get them involved in Sustainable Development issues in the cosmetics sector. And, for the first time in 2016, the Group held a consumer sustainability panel to share with them its commitments and its results to date, and to get feedback and receive suggestions for improvements.

Solidarity Sourcing In 2010, L’Oréal created Solidarity Sourcing , a global responsible purchasing programme which aims to open up the Group’s calls for tenders to companies that employ people from economically vulnerable communities in order to enable them to have durable access to work and to income, as well as to companies that traditionally do not have access to the large calls for tenders of multinational companies. Within this framework, the purchasers work in partnership with the representatives of the Sharing Beauty With All programme located in each country. 5 3 , 5 0 5 P E O P L E O F W H O M : 48,692 PEOPLE 100,000 PEOPLE
