Mentoring development programs Following the first initiative last year, in 2017 the program had 94 mentor-mentee pairs in France and extended to Belgium with 30 pairs. Since its launch in 2014, 600 employees have taken part in this program, whose aim is to: Boost the development of young employees; ● Develop individual careers, strengthen internal mobility ● within the Company; Share the Company values, develop cooperation, and the ● network dynamic; Develop interpersonal skills and strengthen ● intergenerational ties. In parallel of this Mentoring program, Worldline France rolled out the Reverse Mentoring program. Focusing on digital transition and dialogue with new generations born with digital technology, this six-month program aims to support personal and professional development, strengthen intergenerational links, and respond to the issues of digitalization in the Company. It is intended for experienced employees, advanced in their careers and not accustomed to using digital and social technologies. It aims to improve their digital skills through the help of a younger worker who is more experienced in collaborative tools, such as new media and social networks. Since the start of the pilot program in 2016, 190 workers in the three initiatives have enjoyed the Reverse Mentoring Program. The Company’s ambition is to deploy it in others entities. Career paths D.3.3.3.1 Worldline offers opportunities to grow through vertical or lateral promotions in different career paths: management, technical and functional expertise, project management, sales, support functions, etc. In this regards, in 2013 the Company launched the creation of a Worldline Expert Community . This initiative was set up to further develop its technical talents and enable them to grow in the organization, foster collaboration, deepen technical capabilities and improve innovation within the Company. The Expert Community now has 250 members in France, Germany, Belgium, Spain, the United Kingdom, Asia Pacific, and India in the eight main domains of Worldline’s technologies. This Worldline community shares expertise, research and projects with the network of the Atos group’s 1,400 experts. Because the members of this community are fully included in Worldline business and operations, this community is the true catalyst for innovation within Worldline and brings this research and these inventions to the entire company. Similar to “Learning Days,” the “Career Days” program was initiated in 2017 in eight countries with the aim of presenting to all employees the range of devices, tools and programs to support the development of their careers. This week dedicated to information about the means of evolution was the opportunity to focus on Gender Equity on March 8, International Women’s Day. On this occasion, roundtable discussions and testimonials were offered to all employees. Career management approach D.3.3.3

To better manage the career opportunities and development of every employee, Worldline ensures that “Career Talks” are becoming an obvious and regular step on everyone’s agenda to discuss objectives, opportunities and needs for individual career development. Worldline encourages all of its employees to discuss a Career Development Plan with their managers to ensure made-to-measure training and development courses and to help them reach their career development objectives. In 2017, The HR department in France also launched the “Manager Guide,” a new tool to help managers develop their leadership skills, particularly in the annual assessments they have to carry out in their teams. All the French managers received an electronic copy of this guide which is available on SharePoint. Worldline, like the Atos group, has always considered international mobility as a key enabler of its business strategy and its employees’ skills development and careers. This strong commitment was illustrated by the appointment of a Head of International Mobility within Worldline whose mission is to define and promote the mobility strategy, support the operational HR teams in this respect, work closely with the Atos mobility teams, and provide support for employees throughout the process. To anticipate this development requirement, Worldline ensures its employees’ exposure and readiness through a wide range of mobility opportunities. Opportunities for international mobility within Worldline cover international projects, the organization of multi-country teams, the implementation of offshoring, and talent development programs. Worldline’s policies and processes are designed to support this strategy as Worldline strives to reach a level of flexibility to better serve its business and clients. In 2017, the mobility teams have been working to develop and launch a Graduate Program to develop the international experience of new hires, boost the Volunteering for International Experience (VIE) program and develop a toolbox to facilitate the processes. As a result, several VIEs have been offered to trainees and alternates. Geographical and functional mobility Through its “Internal First” approach, Worldline also fosters a culture of internal mobility and promotion and transparently communicates about all opportunities. To this end, newsletters containing the opportunities are published every month. The Job Café initiative was launched to facilitate direct discussions, the Global Worldline Mobility & Recruitment Community was created on blueKiwi to facilitate access to the opportunities, and the My Mobility Community was created in the Atos group to publicize all open positions in the Atos group around the world. In 2017, the Job Café initiative was developed and well received by managers and collaborators. Face-to-face events have been extended in a new virtual format available internationally. Identified as a Best Practice in the Atos group, it is part of the action plan set up by Atos Global HR to develop Mobility through their Internal First program.
