L'Oréal’s corporate social, environmental and societal responsibility* L’ORÉAL’S CORPORATE SOCIAL, ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIETAL POLICIES

Inclusion of people with disabilities Since 2008, L’Oréal has developed a global policy to include people with disabilities within the Company (see also 3.2.4.3. “ Developing sustainably with our surrounding communities ”). In this manner, 1,042 disabled employees (with permanent or fixed-term contracts) worked for L’Oréal (1) at 31 December 2017. This policy focuses on five global priorities: recruitment: L’Oréal promotes the recruitment of people s with disabilities in all countries, whether or not there is a legal obligation; In India, the Group has launched R.I.D.E ( Recruitment Initiative for Disabled Enablement ), an initiative facilitating support for new employees with disabilities; job retention: one of the objectives of the Disability & s Inclusion policy is to enable any employee with a documented disability to keep his/her position by making adjustments to the workplace if necessary, and to allow the employee to develop his/her skills and evolve in the Company; In China, L’Oréal and JD.com, the Company specialised in e-commerce, have created “ Inclusive Beauty ”, a training programme to provide people with disabilities with the skills required for online sales; physical accessibility to premises and digital accessibility to s information: improving accessibility of workplace premises for employees with disabilities is one of L’Oréal’s objectives. All new sites must therefore now meet this objective. Certain countries have retained an audit firm to evaluate the changes needed and the work to be carried out to improve the accessibility of their premises. L’Oréal is also working on improving the accessibility of digital tools. Since 2015, L’Oréal Brazil has therefore been offering, with Voz da Beleza, the first fully accessible consumer portal; raising the employee awareness: internal communication s and training are closely related to the success of L’Oréal's Disability & Inclusion policy with the main objective being to raise the awareness of employees about the integration of employees with disabilities; partnerships with experts: L’Oréal’s teams work in close s collaboration with both international and local experts (associations and non-profit organisations, NGOs, etc.) in order to continuously learn and improve the Group’s Disability & Inclusion policy. International initiatives and awards obtained Since 2016, L’Oréal has been one of the companies that has signed the Global Business and Disability Network charter of

the ILO ( International Labour Organisation ) aimed at promoting and including people with disabilities in companies. For the International Day of persons with disabilities declared by the United Nations, a communication kit was sent to all the Group’s subsidiaries at the end of 2016 in order to help them organise awareness-raising events on disability. In 2017, 47 subsidiaries ; worked on disability-related projects. Reinforcing cultural and social diversity. L’Oréal’s ambition is to reflect the societies in which the Group operates, at all levels and in all functions. Particular attention is therefore paid to the diversification of recruitment sources, to ensuring equal opportunities for career development, and to raising the awareness of employees and management on this subject. By increasingly diversifying the sources of the recruitments in its subsidiaries, L’Oréal wishes to enable all talented individuals to take on high-level responsibilities within the Company, whatever their origins. In 2017, 21 countries focused part of their diversity strategy on social and multicultural origins in line with the realities in their countries. L’Oréal Germany put in place a specific programme designed to give young refugees the opportunity to carry out an internship in the local teams. Six positions were created in different departments and functions and recruitment is under way for an internship programme to begin in 2018. Interns will be fully integrated into the normal internship programme (events, exchanges, networking, presentations), will have a mentor and will follow German courses. L’Oréal USA received a maximum score of 100 in the Corporate Equality Index 2018, consisting of an investigation and a report managed by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation . This score reflects the commitment by L’Oréal USA in favour of equality for persons who are part of the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) community within the Company. L’Oréal France has signed the "Autre Cercle" charter of Commitment, a French association combatting discrimination related to sexual orientation or gender identity. At a global level, L’Oréal works in partnership with the ENAR ( European Network Against Racism ), Equal at Work network, which enables it to hold discussions with other companies on this subject.
