The EDF Group Vigilance Plan is published annually in the Universal Registration Document. It is reproduced in the document below « EDF Group’s stand-alone vigilance plan », for information purposes, with the addition of illustrations and the clarification of certain references to the Sustainability Statement of the 2025 Universal Registration Document, in chapter 3.6.

The EDF Vigilance plan, approved by the CSR Strategic Committee, included reasonable vigilance measures adequate to identify risks and to prevent severe impacts on human rights and fundamental freedoms, health and safety, and the environment arising as a result of the activities of the company, its directly or indirectly controlled subsidiaries, and suppliers and subcontractors with whom an established business relationship is maintained, where these activities are linked to this relationship. 

The Group’s entities must implement a "Duty of Vigilance" program adapted to their entity and the projects they manage, including :

  • Risk mapping by identification, assessment and classification of the risks. This map is established on criteria linked to the type of activity, the country of operation, the suppliers and subcontractors. It relies on value chain assessment processes.
  • Adequate mitigation and preventive actions according to the risk map.
  • Monitoring systems on the effective and efficient implementation of measures.
  • Review of the actual implementation and the effectiveness of these actions, together with identified improvements.
  • Training and awareness-raising of the employees concerned.

The development, deployment and coordination of the vigilance plan are based on close collaboration between the Legal Department and the Impact Department, within a Steering Committee and a Strategic Committee, based on inputs from the Group’s entities.

The implementation and coordination of the vigilance plan rely on a network of duty of vigilance officers, appointed in each relevant Group entity and jointly led by the Legal Department and the Impact Department.
