01 Introduction and strategy 02 Measuring and managing sustainability 03 Climate change related disclosure 04 Strengthening our foundation 05 Our universal principles 02.4 Human resources To effectively manage OHS matters, local Allianz entities implement OHS management systems. They include OHS risk and hazards assessments, dedicated action plans to manage risks, and integration of emergency actions. Internal inspections take place frequently, and progress in reducing and preventing health issues and risks against pre-defined targets is monitored regularly in almost two-thirds of operating entities (covering 53 percent of employees). This includes procedures to investigate work-related injuries, ill health, diseases, and incidents (relevant for 80 percent of our people). 80 percent of our global workforce is regularly trained to raise awareness and reduce operational health and safety incidents. The majority of Allianz operating entities have designated representatives at top management levels to oversee the implementation of OHS and discuss health issues and risk documentation with human resources, managers, and OHS departments. For 33 percent of our people, OHS targets are embedded in performance appraisal and remuneration of management, and the board of directors receives updates on OHS on at least a quarterly basis. Health in Action Framework Health in Action is a strategic framework, derived from OHS, that aims to provide a healthy and productive workplace to enable our employees to reduce work-related stress. It consists of three dimensions: 1) Mental and physical resilience, 2) Motivation and engagement, and 3) Workplace. Efforts to implement the health in action framework globally have paid off, demonstrated by feedback measured through our AES. In 2022, the Work Well Index Plus (WWi+) score was two percentage points above the 2021 result of 69 percent. The current trend in 2022 in the global absentee rate of 8.1 (2021: 6.9) days back to pre- pandemic levels underscores the need for these endeavors. You can find more details in our People Fact Book 2022. Four Minimum Health Requirements as global standard To ensure global consistency regarding health and wellbeing topics, we have defined four Minimum Health Requirements as part of our Health in Action Framework. 1. Access to professional psychological support for all employees worldwide We provide 24-hours anonymous, free-of- charge professional psychological hotlines to all employees to seek expert support and advice if needed. The implementation of such an employee assistance program (EAP) is mandatory for all RACo operating entities by 2022. 2. Training people leaders to maintain health and well-being in their teams We aim to train 100 percent of people leaders in the first year of their leadership role to build up personal r esilience and well-being among their employees. 3. Regular touch points to collect employee feedback on their health and well-being In 2022, we asked for employee feedback on health and mental well-being initiatives in a health pulse survey to identify needs and take appropriate follow-up actions. The minimum requirement for operating entities is to collect feedback as part of annual pulse surveys. 4. Meeting free calendar days @Allianz We aim to provide dedicated focus time for employees to simpl y concentrate on their tasks and their health and mental well-being to manage work- related stressors by regular meeting free calendar days @Allianz. In recognition of the contribution of employees during the pandemic, the Allianz SE Board of Management granted for the second time one additional day off for all employees globally in 2022. 100 % of Allianz’s RACo operating entities with EAP in place (2021: 97 %) 79 % of Allianz employees know EAP (basis 31 operating entities; 2021: 75 %) 1 87 % (15,843) of Allianz people leaders in scope have completed the #lead experience, including a training module on personal resilience and well-being to maintain and promote health within their teams (2021: 95 %; 12,117) 2 95 % of operating entities rolled out Meeting Free Calendar Days @Allianz (2021: 86 %) 1 Voluntary participation of 31 operating entities in Health Pulse Survey in Q1 2022.
