S4-4 – Action plans put in place to prevent, mitigate and remedy health and safety impacts [S4-4-30] → Action plans and resources to manage its material impacts, risks, and opportunities related to consumers and end-users [see ESRS 2 – MDR-A] Concerning aeronautical safety ADP SA has set up a Safety Management System (SMS) and an internal monitoring process at each of its hubs to ensure compliance and maintain the airport safety certificate issued to each of our hubs by the competent authority (DGAC). In addition, a risk map for each hub has been drawn up and is monitored by dedicated governance bodies. Risk management in the context of material negative impacts is indicated in S4-3-25-(a). In addition, to prevent risks to animals and improve firefighting, specific training courses are organised to guarantee a high level of safety and efficiency for the staff of the Aeronautical Areas Department and the processes involved. With regard to public safety at Paris region airports, the main actions taken are as follows: u ADP SA contributes to public safety within the limits of its powers by periodically updating a map of threats and risks in coordination with French government departments and in accordance with the Vigipirate plan; u ADP SA uses a range of human and physical protection and security resources adapted to the areas and risks involved: private security guards in and around the terminals, video protection, protection against malicious and terrorist acts, handling of abandoned objects, combating solicitation by taxis or vehicles for hire, combating clandestine taxis, vehicles for hire and illegal baggage packing, and combating aggression and incivility. Action plans and resources are adjusted and improved as required and in coordination with French government departments; u ADP SA relays the French State's communication on public security and Vigipirate via posters or video screens and, where appropriate, by audible announcements, as well as during exchanges with the airport business community, and may provide specific supplements; u for the homeless, ADP SA carries out daily outreach campaigns in airports and areas closed to the public to meet the homeless and offer them initial social, medical or psychological assistance. Since April 2024, at both Paris - Orly and Paris-Charles de Gaulle, ADP SA has provided premises housing daytime social services run by the Red Cross and financed by the French State to provide social support for the homeless. Concerning safety at Paris region hubs: u under the authority of the Prefect of police of Paris, assisted by a Deputy Prefect for the safety and security of airports and under the supervision of government authorities, Aéroports de Paris is required to put the following in place: u a security check and screening system for all passengers and all cabin baggage and personal effects using detection equipment (gates and X-ray devices, in particular) and, where required, body searches and pat downs. Since 31 January 2014, liquids, aerosols and gels are randomly checked using explosive detection
equipment suitable for these types of products. Since 1 September 2015, security checkpoints have new equipment that also allows the detection of traces of explosives on both passengers and cabin baggage, u a security check system for all hold baggage that ensures security checks of all hold baggage presented by airlines according to procedures defined by the French State, which essentially consists of explosive detecting apparatus, generally integrated into airport baggage handling facilities, possibly accompanied by specially trained dogs, u security check measures for staff, their personal effects and vehicles at each access point to restricted security areas within airports, as well as access control measures, including biometrics in particular, u security check and screening measures for supplies, u security procedures for the use of facilities made available to the Group's partners (check-in counters, boarding lounges, etc.), u special arrangements inside and outside of the terminals including physical separation of flows with passengers from countries or airports not recognised as having an equivalent security level, facilities that allow a single security check for passengers or baggage during connections for certain flights from countries or airports that apply security measures recognised as equivalent, video-surveillance of security checkpoints and personnel access points, security partitions, secured emergency exits, and anti-return doors and hallways, etc., u patrolling procedures and monitoring of border security and controls in critical parts of restricted access security areas for airport identification cards and vehicle passes. ADP SA has set up a security programme for each of its hubs, which is submitted to the Civil Aviation Authority for information purposes. The security programmes set out the tasks, locations, resources and procedures to be used, and are supplemented by training plans for the hiring and training of staff working in the security field and quality assurance programmes that describe in particular Aéroports de Paris’ supervisory mechanisms for overseeing security service providers. The directors of Paris-Charles de Gaulle, Paris-Orly and Paris-Le Bourget are responsible for implementing security programmes within their respective areas. The security programmes result in the issuance by the Deputy Prefect of a security approval for a maximum period of five years. For Paris-Le Bourget, the security programme was approved by prefectural decree on 30 June 2022 for five years. The same applies to those of Paris-Orly and Paris - Charles de Gaulle, which were approved by prefectural decree as of 29 March 2023 for a period of five years. These actions are part of a continuous improvement approach. In conjunction with the relevant French government departments, the Security Department is constantly adapting the security programme to reconcile the effective prevention of acts of unlawful interference with the smooth flow of passenger traffic. It ensures the regulatory compliance of safety measures carried out on behalf of the French State through daily tests, regular expert assessments and monitoring the implementation of the quality assurance programme for hubs, both in the Paris region and internationally.
