POTENTIAL SERIOUS HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS AMONG OUR SUPPLIERS

Some suppliers and subcontractors are located or source in countries where there is a potential impact on the human rights of workers (forced labor, child labor, freedom of association, sexual harassment, health and safety, discrimination, indecent housing, etc. ). In the event of non-respect of the human rights, health and safety of the employees of our subcontractors, Orano would be exposed to a legal risk that could result in a conviction, the payment of damages and a reputational issue. Orano has implemented a policy to defend and preserve human rights and has integrated the duty of vigilance into the supply chain management system. POTENTIAL IMPACT ON OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH, SAFETY AND RADIATION PROTECTION FOR SUBCONTRACTORS AND WITHIN THE UPSTREAM VALUE CHAIN The activities of Orano and those of its suppliers present a signi fi cant level of risk to employee safety, including fatalities (falls from heights, handling accidents, collisions, etc. ) The group’s industrial operations pose risks to the safety of employees of external companies working on its sites. Orano is actively committed to developing a workplace safety culture for its employees and external companies, as safety remains a priority for Orano.

Description

policy is detailed in Section 4.4.1.6. They reaf fi rm the group’s commitment to conducting its activities in strict compliance with internationally recognized human rights. It refers in particular to the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the principles of the UN Global Compact, the OECD Guidelines for multinational enterprises, and the fundamental conventions of the International Labour Organization (ILO). The group’s Supply Chain teams have been made aware of the new Responsible Purchasing policy. Occupational health and safety prevention for external companies working on Orano sites In addition, Orano ensures that external companies are aware of risks and their prevention, particularly in terms of safety and health. Each Orano site or facility provides “Safety induction training” (FAS) for employees of outside contractors who are due to enter the site. During this training, which varies in format and duration, the following are presented: the site, activities, facilities, processes and materials involved, major risks and associated prevention measures, principles of nuclear and industrial safety, as well as certain safety culture fundamentals. The training includes a multiple-choice test (MCQ) to assess the knowledge acquired. A minimum score is required to validate the training. Validation of the training is a condition for obtaining access authorization by issuing a badge. In addition, to work in a nuclear zone, regardless of the profession, the external contractor as well as the Orano employee must have followed and validated a training in the prevention of risks.

The issues identi fi ed are consistent with those of the risk mapping carried out under the law on the duty of vigilance and presented in Section 3.4. They are based on a risk intrinsic to the country or the activity carried out (construction, chemicals, mining and metals, etc .). 4.3.2.2 Policies and actions related to workers in the value chain Orano describes its requirements in a contractual document, “Sustainable development commitment”, applied to its suppliers, as well as in its general purchasing conditions, which can support speci fi c conditions speci fi c to a project or a framework contract. The group’s general purchasing terms and conditions (GTC) include speci fi c provisions such that Orano, its customer, any third party commissioned by Orano, or any duly empowered authority shall have access to the premises of the supplier or subcontractors for the purpose of inspections or audits of all the requirements speci fi ed in the order. In the same way, Orano reserves the right to verify, at any time, the compliance of its suppliers’ and subcontractors’ practices with the Code of ethics and business conduct, it being understood that non-compliance with the provisions of the GTC may result in the termination of the order. The group has reinforced the formalization of its requirements through a Human Rights policy and a Responsible Purchasing policy, validated in 2024 by the governance authorities. This
