SOCIAL AND SOCIETAL MATTERS

[S2-ESRS 2 SBM-3-11-(b)] → Disclosure of any geographies or commodities for which there is a significant risk of child labour, or of forced labour or compulsory labour, among workers in the company's value chain In addition to the elements detailed in paragraph [S2-ESRS2 SBM-3-11], the risk analysis carried out by the Group's Purchasing Department (SLA) identified: u purchasing segments that are more sensitive to social risks; u the geographical areas where these risks were most significant for activities located upstream of value chains and outside airport sites. It should be noted that as most of Groupe ADP's purchasing expenditure is concentrated in France and the European Union (see paragraph [S2-SBM-3]), the countries or geographical areas most at risk account for the smallest share. To date, no incidents of child labour or forced labour have been identified within Groupe ADP value chain. Nevertheless, as part of its duty of vigilance, Groupe ADP is committed to raising awareness and identifying Human Rights risks, in particular all forms of illegal and abusive labour, in its supply/subcontracting chains (see paragraphs [SBM – 3 14 fii] and [SBM – 3 14 gii]). According to data from independent international indices 4 , the countries and geographical areas most at risk in terms of child labour and forced labour are, in order of priority: Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Kazakhstan, Jordan, Georgia and Tunisia (the last two being considered to be most at risk solely for the use of child labour). Given these factors, the Group must continue to integrate the protection of vulnerable people throughout the value chain and in its international development strategy, while promoting the local economy and redistributing the value created in its countries of operation. ACTIONS FOR RISK MITIGATION AND PREVENTION – DEVELOPMENTS IN 2024 Since 2023, thanks to a three year partnership with Human Resources Without Borders (Ressources Humaines Sans Frontières - RHSF), the Group has been contributing to the collective effort of the 8.7 Global Alliance concerning: u decent work for all; u France's commitment as a pioneer in the fight against forced labour, child labour, modern slavery and human trafficking in supply chains. This partnership is also an opportunity for the Group to gain a better understanding of these complex phenomena, which it has never been confronted with to date, but which are part of its social and societal responsibility and its duty of vigilance.

SBM – 3 14 g i Information on the type of operations presenting a significant risk of child labour incidents For Groupe ADP employees, in the same way as for forced labour (see SBM – 3 14 fi), the risks of child labour are assessed as being "under control" in the Human Rights risk mapping, as purely airport operations are fairly well protected (activity authorisations and compulsory access permits, presence of the relevant government departments). The higher areas of vigilance are therefore essentially linked to operations carried out in the Group's value chains, outside airport zones. Taking into account the sectors most at risk of recourse to child labour identified in greater detail thanks to our partnership with RHSF (see point 2 of this chapter) 1 , Groupe ADP must be particularly vigilant in the following sectors and types of operation in its value chains: u the agri-food supply chain, the sector most at risk (farming, processing, transport); u services requiring short-term training (baggage handlers, cleaning services, small-scale handling, etc.); u the supply chain for construction projects (extraction of raw materials, transport); u the IT equipment supply chain (extraction of rare metals, assembly of components, transport). SBM – 3 14 g ii Information on countries or geographical areas where operations are considered to present a significant risk of child labour To date, there have been no incidents of child labour within Groupe ADP's activities or within its value chain. Nevertheless, as part of its duty of vigilance, Groupe ADP is committed to making progress in identifying and mapping Human Rights risks, particularly child labour risks, in the areas and countries where it operates and in its supply chains/subcontracting. According to UNICEF data 2 , none of Groupe ADP's countries of operation is classified in the highest risk zone for child labour. Nevertheless, some of our countries of operation are on the list of countries that require increased vigilance, in order of priority: Haiti, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Tunisia, Kazakhstan, Jordan and Georgia. This classification is based in particular on the geopolitical situation and the institutional and social fragility of the states 3 .
