SUSTAINABILITY STATEMENT Social and societal information
Regional Economic Development targets and results
On the McClean Lake site in Canada, for bids with similar characteristics, preference is systematically given to local suppliers from the northern part of the province of Saskatchewan. According to statutes established by the laws of the Province of Saskatchewan. For example, contracts for services such as catering or site monitoring, which are labor-intensive, have been obtained by suppliers in this region. Nearly 40% of McClean Lake’s purchases are made from suppliers in northern Saskatchewan and aboriginal communities. More than 70% of purchases are made in the region and 98% of purchases are made in Canada. In addition to its direct contribution to job creation in the countries in which it operates, Orano Mining intends to strengthen the use of employment and local subcontracting in order to contribute to the development of new sectors and local employment.
In its Responsible Purchasing policy, Orano undertakes to carry out 80% of its purchases in Europe for its entities located in France and 50% in the other countries where it operates. This target is voluntary and updated regularly to ensure continuous improvement. Orano is extremely vigilant about the sustainability of the network of suppliers in the nuclear sector in France and about the development of skills. In line with its commitment approach, Orano ensures that most of its purchases are made at the national or local level. 85% of purchases by entities located in France are thus made in France, with a very high proportion of local purchases in the territories close to its major industrial sites. This rate increases to 94% for purchases made in Europe, in line with the group’s objective. These rates are down slightly in 2025 due to the increase in Orano Med’s activity and speci fi c supplies that could not be obtained locally.

n/a: not applicable. The indicator related to purchasing in Europe introduced by the Responsible Purchasing policy is reported for the fi rst time in 2024. Methodological clarification: Purchases taken into account are based on order volumes in euros, outside the group and excluding nuclear materials. Purchases of nuclear material for resale and trading, insurance and real estate have been excluded. The location of the supplier considered is that of its facility’s geographic location. The scope of consolidation of these indicators excludes fi ve activities in France, Germany and the United States for which reporting was not possible. It covers 99% of the group’s orders, outside the group. The absence of this data does not impact the indicators presented. 4.3.3.5 Dialogue with affected communities and complaints management process All of the bodies in which the group participates enable members of civil society or their representatives to raise concerns. A non exhaustive list of these bodies is presented in Sections 4.1.4 and 4.3.3.3. Orano Mining has also deployed a grievance mechanism at all its sites to resolve complaints made by third parties in the context of its activities. This is accessible at the level of each entity in the language of the country, at least by a telephone number and an email address. These are communicated on the entity’s website. Orano Mining reports annually on the complaints received in its CSR report, which is available on the group’s website. The group’s whistleblowing mechanism, which allows any natural person to submit a complaint, and how to access it, are described in Section 4.4.1.3.
