In addition to its work-study programme, the Group pro-motes professional integration by sourcing from organisations specialised in re-integrating the long-term unemployed into the workforce, and by working with the Fonds Agir pour l’Emploi EDF (FAPE EDF), EDF’s employ-ment foundation, on projects supported by community development organisations, integration schemes and more.

The FAPE EDF employment foundation actively supports professional inte-gration and job creation for the long-term unemployed by supporting the social and fair economy. The FAPE EDF involves all the Group’s actors in a commitment to working towards the public interest and combating social and professional exclusion. Managed collectively with labour unions, the FAPE EDF builds strong ties with the community by encouraging current and retired EDF employees to make donations, which it then matches and doubles in an additional contribution. In 2019, the FAPE EDF assisted 265 professional integration projects in organic market gardening, recycling or community garages, or the creation or takeover of companies by the long-term unemployed. In all, 3,616 jobs were created or subsidised. These projects were financed through donations from 13,538 Group employees or pensioners, along with the matching additional contribu-tions from the Group. In 2019, subsidies totalling €2.3 million were granted.

The Group’s Purchasing Department has tightened its supplier ethics and compliance controls to protect EDF from potential sanctions and damage to its reputation due to any illegal practices on the part of suppliers. In 2019, the Purchasing Department carried out almost 2,500 new controls.
Its Sustainable Development – Corporate Social Responsibility assessment process includes supplier audits, performed on site by external auditors, and monitored self-assessments. This process is implemented in line with the map of CSR risks by purchasing segment. In 2019, the map of risks was updated to take into account duty of care and was extended to include the assessment of ethics and compliance risks in purchasing. Under the terms of their purchasing agreement, suppliers must introduce corrective action plans if any cases of non-compliance or serious violations of legal requirements are reported.
The Group’s Purchasing Department conducts audits in France and throughout the world. In 2019, it focused on supplier sites in Europe, where all its audits were performed (of which 77% in France).

The Group’s Purchasing Department uses the Acesia online assessment platform developed by Afnor to manage the self-assessment question-naires. At end-2019, nearly 1,750 suppliers had been surveyed using this platform, and 815 of them were subject to controls and assessed.
The assessments conducted found supplier performance to be "satisfac-tory" or "acceptable with observations" for over 80% of the audits and almost 40% of the questionnaires.
The Purchasing Department has set a target to send the questionnaire to all suppliers engaged in a contract worth over €400,000 incurring high risk.
