SOCIAL DIALOG Risk description

particularly when the business shutdowns were not or only partially compensated for by the public authorities. In 2021, the Group also had to put in place, in consultation with employee representatives, measures to adapt to the “stop and go” of customer production linked to the semiconductor supply crisis. These constant adjustments and this flexibility are monitored within each business line. For activities that allow this, the Group has defined the principles of teleworking and, in 2021, initiated negotiations or consultations with employee representatives and trade unions in the various countries. The agreements or charters implemented comply with the principle of a dual voluntary service on the part of the employee and their manager. Each site has then the opportunity to adapt this base according to local constraints and different business lines. The employees impacted can have up to two days of teleworking per week. The Group has also taken care to maintain and promote a teamwork dynamic, particularly after periods of confinement during a physical return to work. In 2021, health measures once again impacted the organization of meetings set up as part of social dialog. The teams organized themselves to keep these meetings in the form of videoconferences when necessary. The schedule of meetings has been adapted to health constraints and travel difficulties, particularly international ones. Early 2021, the European Consultation Committee was renewed: it bring together 39 members from ten different countries and from all Plastic Omnium business lines, held in June 2021. In addition to the annual plenary meeting of the committee, a bureau of five members elected by the committee meets regularly and on an ad hoc basis as required.

Social dialog concerns collective bargaining in which employees are informed and consulted. The absence or poor management of social dialog impacts the Company’s productivity. Failure to facilitate social dialog within the Company can lead to a loss of cohesion and harm the development of a sense of belonging. The poor management of social dialog can also hinder the development of the Company, which is required to consult social bodies on certain economic and social issues. Policies and procedures Plastic Omnium’s labor relations policy aims to develop dialog and consultation in all countries where the Group operates. Social dialog is organized at the level of the support functions. Plastic Omnium Group oversees the work of the European Consultation Committee and negotiations for all business lines and it monitors decisions taken in each country.
