workforce at both companies. This explains the significant increase in the workforce between 2014 and 2015. Unless otherwise indicated, indicators are calculated on the basis of numbers of employees on permanent and temporary contracts and internship agreements. The following definitions are used: p permanent contract: full-time or part-time employment contract entered into with an employee for an indefinite period; p fixed-term contract: full-time or part-time employment contract entered into with an employee and expiring at the end of a specific period or on completion of a specific task lasting an estimated period. In 2016, rules for calculating the “Number of days’ training delivered” and “Average number of days’ training per person” indicators were harmonised across all countries as follows: number of hours’ training divided by 7 (compared with 8 for Spain and India in 2015). In 2017, the rule for calculating the “Working conditions and organisation” indicator was changed. The 2016 and 2017 rates are now calculated in business days rather than calendar days (calendar days were used for 2014 and 2015).

SUMMARY OF WORKFORCE-RELATED INDICATORS Workforce-related indicators cover the workforce in all Group subsidiaries. They are set out by subject area, geographical region and year as at 31 December. The information identified by the ✔ sign has been verified by the independent third party with a reasonable level of assurance. Indicators are calculated excluding headcount acquired during the year under review, apart from indicators under “Workforce by geographical region”, which include headcount acquired during the year. For reference, 2012 and 2013 figures include Sopra Group companies only; 2015 figures include the CIMPA workforce; 2016 figures include the workforce at Cassiopae, Active3D and LASCE Associates; and 2017 figures include the workforce at Gallit, Kentor and 2MoRO. Given that Sopra and Steria merged in 2015, indicators for that year include the
