For Senior management, the objective was to enable managers to understand the vision and strategy of the new management team, to keep themselves informed about the results and to be aligned with the management of the crisis and answer questions. Four virtual events, now called “Live webcast with Laurent Favre” were organized between Senior Management and the Group’s 380 directors. In the same vein, the business lines meet with their senior managers every two to three months. At the end of 2020, Senior management also brought together virtually 69 strategic executives for a series of collaborative “Management Workshops” on forward-looking issues for the Group. In November 2020, Laurent Favre initiated a series of virtual meetings with employees called “Meet the CEO.” These sessions, each bringing together around fifteen people in a given region, enabled him to share the Group’s strategy and better understand the teams’ expectations. The first two sessions covered the United States and Asia. The lockdown has shown the importance of maintaining the human link and information for the teams. At all sites, the management teams have organized themselves to regularly share information, answer questions from employees and prepare for the return to work: dedicated groups on the corporate social network, discussion threads on social networks, conference calls, newsletters etc. Teams dedicated to internal communications also contribute to intra-employee dialog. “Optimum” is the bi-annual internal magazine. Translated into eight languages and distributed to 22,000 employees, it was digitalized in 2020 to adapt to planning, budgeting and health precautions. The Group launched a new collaborative tool, HIVE (corporate social network), so that teams could more easily discuss ongoing projects and common topics. Public since September, it brings together 5,545 members (including 967 “disconnected employees”) around 407 discussion topics. It brings together both business line topics (for example, for the HR and IT communities), local topics on life at sites and within projects and skill sets. On Topnet, the Group’s intranet, 156 news items were published in 2020, i.e. an average of 13 per month, identical to that of the previous year. Plastic Omnium sites regularly publish news on their communication screens, commonly located in rest areas. HEALTH AND SAFETY AT WORK 4.6.2.2 The industrial activity and working conditions on the production lines expose the Group to the risk of workplace accidents, occupational illnesses or non-compliance with regulations in force. Employee safety has been a priority within Plastic Omnium for a number of years. The efficiency of the “Top Safety” policy implemented to reduce these risks has been proven year after year with steady improvement in the key performance indicators. Thus, 81 sites had no accidents in 2020. In addition to serious consequences for women and men, from a social perspective, this could impact the social dialog, employee involvement and appeal of the Group. There could also be legal and financial consequences for Plastic Omnium. Since 2006, safety has been a topic considered at the highest level and by everyone in the Plastic Omnium organization, from operators to management, and is incorporated in the “Care for people” pillar of ACT FOR ALL TM . The Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) Department, which reported to the Group Human Resources Department until December 31, 2020, implements the Group HSE strategy defined by the Executive Committee to ensure total protection of employees, assets and the environment. The Group HSE Department steers and coordinates the HSE actions of the three business lines and leads the HSE network. HSE data are regularly presented at the two ACT FOR ALL TM Committees and the two HSE Committees. In 2020, the first HSE Committee was incorporated into the June Executive Committee Meeting.
