Orano - Annual Activity Report 2025 198 4 SUSTAINABILITY STATEMENT Social and societal information The adequacy of the relevance of the actions selected in the annual prevention program with regard to the risk assessment in the DUERP is monitored through the review of the annual programs for the prevention of occupational risks and the improvement of working conditions (PAPRIPACT). Ergonomics leadership has been set up at the national level to promote the sharing and homogeneity of practices. On the theme of the prevention of musculoskeletal disorders (MSD), campaigns aimed at raising awareness of stretching at work, “Active Prevention”, are rolled out on the sites: self-questionnaire on positioning in relation to a sedentary lifestyle, raising awareness of preventive measures, opening of gyms at the Tricastin and la Hague sites, prevention project to raise employee awareness of sedentary lifestyles, etc. In 2025, Orano continued the deployment of the preventive health attitude program for employees. 2025 IN ACTION Santé Attitude (Health attitude) program Santé attitude is a multi-year prevention and screening program led by the Health Department for the group’s employees: dermatology, cardiovascular diseases and also breast cancer and male cancers… The 2025 edition took place on 12 sites allowing nearly 1,800 consultations. The offer was completed in 2025 by the introduction of monthly consultations (dermatologists and/or midwives) on certain sites, in order to address situations where medical services are scarce. Expertise at the service of medical surveillance GATOME (toxicological and metrological technical support group) is a multidisciplinary team (consisting of the group Radiation Protection Safety Manager, an occupational physician, an occupational health nurse), helping to assess chemical exposures. At the request of entities, professionals advise the entity from a toxicological point of view, on the measurement campaigns to be carried out in the field and the sampling strategies to adopt. The objective is to trace toxicological exposures and to adapt collective and individual protection equipment. The samples are analyzed by a COFRAC-certified laboratory. Then, a collective intervention report is drafted and presented to the entity. In 2025, GATOME was called upon for three expert appraisal assignments on welding fume and chromium and lead risks in Orano facilities. A health service supporting the group’s initiatives As part of its prevention missions, the SPST runs the Psychological Listening and Support System (DEA) made available to employees and their family companions. In addition, in the event of a serious incident, Orano provides emergency psychological support. In order to prepare for any national or international accident-related actions, the Health Department actively participates in the FINA (Orano National Intervention Force) with pilot initiatives of the health teams on the Tricastin site. The nurse coordinators have all taken the crisis management training. In addition, the nurse coordinator of the Tricastin SPST benefited from university-level training in this topic. Throughout the year, the Orano Health and Occupational Prevention Service oversees monthly awareness campaigns with the Communication Department, such as: Pink October on breast cancer, Movember around male cancers, awareness of endometriosis screening, etc. It also participates in partnership actions related to the subject of cancer (CAMI race, children without cancer organized by the association Imagine for Margo, La Châtillonnaise race, etc.). At a time when cancer is an ever-present reality in our personal and professional environment, the group has decided to take steps to support its employees in the workplace, in order to improve monitoring, encourage the adoption of health-promoting behaviors and improve support for employees diagnosed with cancer. The Health Department participates in the actions resulting from the group’s signature of the “Working With Cancer” (WWC) Charter in November 2024. Occupational safety The priorities for action for occupational safety aim to: ● consolidating the safety culture through regular selfassessments of entities and the associated feedback, and taking organizational and human factors into account; ● make the fundamental HSE rules, including safety anchors, and expected best practices more visible; and ● strengthen the detection and processing of weak signals. Occupational safety principles The activities of Orano present risks to the safety of the group’s employees as well as to external contractors working on its sites, leading to serious accidents, even fatalities (falls from a height, handling accidents, collisions, etc.). The group aims to reduce the number of workplace accidents and their severity for employees and external workers. To avoid and reduce these risks, the group has implemented a proactive approach aimed at developing a culture of prevention in terms of occupational safety for its employees and external contractors working on its sites. This is based, among other things, on a systematic risk analysis and the application of the anchors and standards defined by the group. Orano has developed five safety anchors to be respected to prevent employees and subcontractors from exposing themselves to serious or fatal risks. These anchors or “rules that save” are associated with obligations and prohibitions that structure the actions. They are used in managerial practices. Any accident or event is analyzed to identify its root causes and implement an appropriate action plan. It is systematically rated according to its severity potential (HIPO rating from 1 to 5) and possibly linked to an anchoring. The group’s rules are applied within the entities in specific approaches adapted to the activities: operational rigor at Orano Mining, shared vigilance at Orano Chimie-Enrichissement, etc.
