11 Life Is On | Schneider Electric www.se.com 2021 Sustainable Development Report Annual external verification Each year, Schneider Electric obtains a “limited” level of assurance from an independent third party verifier for all of the SSI and SSE indicators, in accordance with ISAE 3000 assurance standard (see Independent verifier’s report on page 168). Rewarding employees for performance Since 2011, the SSI score is included in the variable compensation of global functions and Company leaders. In France, since 2012, the SSI has also been included in the profit-sharing incentive plan for the French entities, Schneider Electric Industries and Schneider Electric France. From 2019, the weight of the SSI criteria has increased from 6% to 20% in the collective part of the annual short- term incentive highlighting further the importance of sustainability on Schneider Electric’s business agenda. Further details are provided in section “Compensation and benefits” on page 126. In 2021, the SSI performance impacts short-term incentive plans for 64,000 managers (20% of collective share).
