____ 3. SUSTAINABILITY & RESPONSIBILITY THE FOUR PILLARS OF THE GOOD TIMES FROM A GOOD PLACE ROADMAP

Responsible e-commerce 3.3.4.3 Objectives and policies

Responsible experiences 3.3.4.4 Objectives and policies

As a part of the Group’s efforts to combat underage drinking by ensuring that its products are not sold or delivered to intoxicated people, the Group took a very active part in drawing up the IARD global standards for online alcohol sales and delivery (1) . These global safeguards mark the first world coalition to prevent the online sale and delivery of alcohol to underage individuals and to reduce harmful consumption of alcohol among adults. The Group has shared these standards with the affiliates involved in e-commerce. Action plans and next steps This year, the Group will verify the implementation of these standards on its own online sales platforms. Pernod Ricard will continue to work with its peers and e-commerce partners to roll out the global e-commerce standards in order to ensure the responsible sales of its products online.

As a responsible host, Pernod Ricard wants to offer its guests safe experiences when enjoying its products. To this end, the Group released in November 2020 new global events guidelines for more sustainable and responsible events, with an emphasis on the responsible service of alcohol. Alongside the guidelines, Pernod Ricard has developed a training on the responsible service of alcohol that is mandatory for all event organizers, agencies and staff attending an event. The training is articulated around the basics on alcohol, the organization of a responsible event, and responsible serving.
