PERNOD RICARD - 2018-2019 Universal registration document
3. SUSTAINABILITY & RESPONSIBILITY The main sustainaibility risks and opportunities
Given the nature of our activities, we consider that “tax evasion” mentioned in article L. 225-102-1 of French Commercial Code does not constitute a major extra-financial risk for the Group and does not warrant development in this “Extra Financial Statement”. Nevertheless, “tax evasion” is taken into account in subsection 3.4.1.4 “Tax policy”.

Talent management
Risks: due to insufficient career development management or a non-attractive compensation policy, Pernod Ricard may have difficulties to attract and retain the competencies needed for its activities, leading to business difficulties and a deterioration in its financial results. Opportunities: 94% of turnover is generated internationally, and a growing number of consumers are women. Developing markets are the clear majority of the global human population and women are half of the population. They are customer groups and talent pools that cannot be neglected. Pernod Ricard builds on this diversity and promotes it, to increase innovation, business adaptation and opportunity. Risks: Pernod Ricard’s employees and contractors’ health and safety may be exposed to occupational injuries (burns, physical traumas, falls, toxic inhalation, etc.), major industrial accidents (fires, explosions, etc.) or natural disasters.
