Leroy Merlin response

From the first day of the war, we closed all our stores so that our employees could take care of their families. In July, we resumed activity by reopening a store to support the inhabitants with essential products to repair and maintain the habitat, prices “without inflation” and with a free delivery service under conditions.

In this restart phase, we have a simplified organization, adapted to the needs of a single store...In this phase, the human resources, local sourcing, supply chain, IT and finance functions are operated locally by in-store teams...The employees of other Leroy Merlin Ukraine stores and internal service teams continued not to work, while receiving 100% of their salaries paid by the company...

In this objective, each employee meets with their manager to review their personal situation and consider returning to work on site. If our employees have urgent housing or health needs, help is offered to them via our Solidarity Fund.

Some employees who left Kyiv have resumed professional activity outside of Leroy Merlin. In this very particular case, we simply offer them the choice between their two employers; and if they choose not to stay with Leroy Merlin, then they should resign. Other employees have decided on their own to leave the company for personal reasons.

Thus we express our strong disagreement with the inaccurate assertions of your open statement. Leroy Merlin respects all the sanctions put in place by the European Union as well as the principles of the UN Global Compact. You will be able to observe that a very large number of people who may have been shown their incomprehension and their disagreements with our company at the beginning of the conflict, have already chosen to come back to work alongside us, thus demonstrating their confidence in our company.

Out of 775 employees before the war, 520 have already resumed their work in Ukraine, or in other European countries where Leroy Merlin is present and 30 employees have chosen to leave the company...
