Giving everybody the tools to thrive

Renault Group places particular emphasis on diversity, inclusion and well-being in the workplace, as well as on skills building, value sharing and social integration through mobility.

Since its founding, our company has often led the way in implementing social change in the workplace. In line with this commitment and its corporate purpose, the Group is pursuing an ambitious human resources policy to support its 105,000 employees around the world and provide them with a safe and inclusive working environment. Rising to the challenges of our time, we believe that companies have a responsibility to create value for all their stakeholders. In consequence, we are supporting employees in navigating the sweeping changes taking place in the automotive sector and in industry in general.

  • in France, the 50+ Charter to support employees over 50 (2022),

Provide an inclusive working environment for every employee

We are seeking to create an accessible and inclusive working environment where everyone can thrive and grow professionally, regardless of the context and their specific needs.

Action 1

In 2021, the company signed a global agreement on hybrid working on-site and remotely.

To better integrate people with disabilities, the company has implemented a global policy of disability inclusion. This involves adapting workstations and also making sure that the disabled person is fully integrated with their work team.

Action 3

The Group is a signatory of the ILO Disability Charter.

03

Support inclusion and development

To promote inclusion, we are committed to creating an environment where all employees are able to grow.

Action 1

The Group organises regular training courses:

  • training for all managers on discriminatory bias and behaviour;
  • training for all managers on inclusive management;
  • training to integrate disabled people with their work teams.

Action 2

The influence of various affinity networks:

  • The Women@RenaultGroup network promotes sisterhood and the visibility of women. It is open to women and men in the Group who wish to get involved and contribute to greater gender diversity.
  •  The WAO (We Are OutStandIng) network supports the inclusion of LGBT+ people in the workplace.

04

Develop gender diversity

We have set ambitious targets to increase the representation of women across the Group, in all business lines, in all countries, and at all levels of our organisation.

At the same time, we are committed to promoting women to key positions within the Group and also to governance bodies. Our aim for 2030 is to have 30% of women in management and senior management positions, rising to 50% by 2050. We are also aiming for 50% of female apprentices by 2025.

Action 1

Each country and business line has targets for the recruitment and promotion of women, thereby contributing to the Group’s global commitments.

Action 2

The Group regularly meets school groups to promote its business activities and underline the importance of gender diversity.

It is the role of our employees, who are ambassadors for gender diversity, to attract more women to the automotive industry.

Commitment

Renault Group is subject to French legislation on gender representation in its various legal entities in France.

The Group therefore publishes a gender equality index for all entities in France with over 1,000 employees.

An inclusive and sustainable transformation

01

Involving employees in group performance

In 2022, we introduced a policy to develop employee share ownership: the Renaulution Shareplan.

As part of this major operation, each employee received eight free Group shares with the opportunity to acquire more on preferential terms. At end-2023, employees held around 5.25% of the share capital of Renault SA.

Training group and automotive industry employees in the skills of the future

Through our corporate university, ReKnow University, we are supporting the transformation of skills for the transition to the new value chains of electric power, data and the circular economy.

Set up in 2021 and dedicated initially to training Group employees in France, its activities are gradually expanding internationally and to industrial partners in the automotive industry. This has made it possible to pool the development and implementation of vocational training courses. Nearly 25,000 people have followed training since 2021

04

Supporting social integration through inclusive mobility

To support social integration through inclusive mobility, we are pursuing two initiatives:

Caremakers Invest

Caremakers Invest is a Renault Group investment company recognised as an Entreprise solidaire d’utilité sociale, or socially responsible company. For over 10 years, it has been working alongside companies (associations, cooperatives, etc.) in developing mobility solutions to prevent social exclusion and help people in difficulty find employment.

CareMakers Mobility

Further, our CareMakers Mobility inclusive mobility programme helps low-income customers acquire a car on a microloan or hire purchase basis, based on preferential solutions from Dacia and Renault. Overall, more than 3,000 people have been able to take advantage of these offers through the network of socially responsible partner garages.

The Group plans to pursue this programme in France and extend it to other European countries between now and 2025, to reach 5,000 people by the end of 2025.
