           the work of gardener, present in the Parent Company. The Integrated Safety and Environment Manual refers to the
           procedure for the analysis and management of accidents, envisaging any improvements that may need to be made.

                                                                                                     [GRI 403-10]
           Similarly  to  last  year,  there  were  no  cases  of  occupational  diseases.  The  main  dangers  that  can  cause  future
           occupational diseases, identified through risk assessment, are those deriving from risk factors: physical, such as noise
           and vibrations of the hand-arm system and whole body; and relative to the workplaces and organisation of work, such
           as the correct ergonomics of the work station and use of a video terminal. Preventive measures taken to offset these
           risks  and  ensure  the  correct  conduct  of  activities  are  monitored  through  the  three  control  levels  envisaged  in  the
           Integrated Safety and Environment Manual.

           Workplace health and comfort
           To  evaluate  the  effectiveness  of  the  adopted  management  approach,  General  Services  conduct  environmental
           monitoring and surveys to assess the internal well-being of work environments, performing air quality analyses at the
           Group’s  main  locations  and  monitoring  noise  levels  and  micro  climate,  which  have  resulted  in  the  adoption  of
           improvements. The Prevention and Protection Service instead conducts safety audits on a regular basis, especially at
           newly opened locations or offices, in the event of significant changes to the layout of work environments or during annual
           evacuation drills.

           The  Group  is  currently  reviewing  its  sites  to  increase  flexibility  and  sustainability  (including  environmental
           sustainability), thereby confirming the Bank’s close focus on and commitment towards adopting socially responsible
           behaviour.  All  office  restructuring  operations  are  designed  and  carried  out  with  a  view  to  supplying  functional,
           comfortable  environments,  with  a  particular  focus  on  design:  offices,  meeting  rooms  and  common  areas  feature
           furnishings and new technologies that promote the exchange and sharing of information. For example, the restructuring
           of the Milan property, in progress since 2020, sees particularly close attention being paid to new dynamics linked to co-
           working procedures, flexibility of space and remote working (for more details, see the section on direct environmental
           impacts).

           Occupational welfare policies
