(A) Number of working days worked by all statutory employees.
(B) Number of days of annual leave taken by all statutory employees.
(C) Number of days of absence (sick leave, occupational diseases, maternity leave, paternity leave, occupational injuries and/or commuting accidents or any other paid or unpaid absence).
(D) Number of days of sick leave (excluding occupational diseases, maternity or paternity leave, occupational injuries and/or commuting accidents).
In 2021, total absenteeism figures were again affected, to a lesser extent than in 2020, by the periods during which certain points of sale and hair salons were closed, which prevented the employees affected from working in certain countries. The exemption from work for employees at risk and those isolating, who were unable to work from home, also contributed to this increase. If these absences were excluded, global absenteeism would have reached a level equivalent to the level of the years prior to the Covid-19 health crisis.

4.3.2.1. Preserving employee health and safety
An ambitious shared health and safety policy
The Health (H) and Safety (S) policy is a main priority objective of the Group’s general policy, and one of its main managerial pillars. All managers are evaluated on their ability to apply it, and on their results in this area. It is based on the fundamentals presented in section 4.3.1.1.1. “An ambitious EHS policy shared by all” of this document.
Moving towards « zero accidents » is the ambition that L’Oréal has set for the safety of its employees. To this end, the Group has implemented comprehensive programmes aimed at reducing risks and ensuring regular improvement in results through the leadership of managers and the participation of staff at all levels.
The Group strives to ensure regulatory compliance with its own standards on its sites (industrial or administrative sites, research centres stores), and makes sure that its subcontractors and suppliers ensure the health and safety of people through a specifically dedicated programme of external audits.
