Ameaningful work environment

2.8.4 Quality of employee working conditions and safety AFD Group strives to ensure high-quality working conditions and the safety of persons. In particular, these challenges are addressed by the Group’s corporate responsibility policy, which provides for the implementation of an effective psychosocial risk management system, based on the prevention and management of these risks, on the one hand, and on support and training/awareness- raising measures for all employees, on the other hand. An action plan on quality of life at work including a major psychosocial risk prevention system was implemented in 2018. An external psychological support system is offered to employees through access to external consultations. The monthly on-site presence of a psychologist has also been strengthened. A leaflet describing all psychosocial risk players has been widely distributed. Training and awareness-raising sessions on psychosocial risks have also been provided to HR managers and employee representatives. A series of HR conferences is offered to all employees on various subjects (non-violent communication, philosophy at work, and removing obstacles to cooperation). 2.8.4.1 Security of Group employees Regarding the security of goods and people, AFD Group implements several internal rules and policies, and in particular: i) a Group security policy (PSEC), ii) an agency security policy

(PSAG). These documents are brought to the attention of all Group employees. On the other hand, the Group implements a system, which takes into account security rules internationally and is audited internally. In addition, a project for the prevention of international security risks has enabled AFD Group to develop its security organisation to take fuller account of the security situation in some of its countries of operation. In this respect, the Group has restructured its system for monitoring international travel and the human resources dedicated to the security of the Network and its missions. Regional departments are placed at the heart of the network’s security system. Efforts to make the sites more secure, particularly in the most sensitive countries, continued in 2018 ( * ) based on new standards. The security of the AFD head office was also subject to an in- depth review. In addition to the modernisation of tools, these changes seek to open up the building to new, more collaborative uses working with partners whilst guaranteeing the expected level of security. All of these developments go together with a significant multi- channel training effort on security challenges, combining digital awareness and face-to-face training. As part of the 2018 (1) awareness-raising campaign, 513 employees (21% of Group employees) followed the «security of missions» e-learning. Over the last three years, AFD has trained more than 1,500 employees on security challenges at the head office and in the network.
