In 2021, Wood appointed a President of Sustainability, supported by the Vice President for Environment, Sustainability Manger and Business Unit Sustainability Leads. Our Sustainability Adviser co-ordinates our carbon reporting system. These roles reflect and support the transition of the business into its new future, preparing and engaging our people to embrace global energy transition. They also work together to steer the course of the sustainability program as the Sustainability Steering Leadership Team. Steering is done through a series of progress meetings and strategy days. The Safety, Sustainability, Assurance and Business Ethics Committee is responsible for overseeing the Group’s management of Health, Safety, Security, Environmental (HSSE), Sustainability and regulatory compliance & Business Ethics matters, in line with the Group’s policies and values commitment. Recognising the increasing importance and pace of the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) agenda, the committee’s terms of reference expanded in 2020 to include accountability for Wood’s approach to sustainability. The primary focus of the committee is to ensure that risks associated with issues relating to HSSE, Sustainability and Business Ethics are understood and managed and oversight is provided to systems and assurance activities in place to minimise the occurrence of major events. Chaired and comprised of non-executive Board members, the committee oversees the Group’s effectiveness in its approach to managing sustainability issues and responding to sustainability risks and stakeholder needs. The committee meets four times a year, with an additional commitment to deliver a detailed review of sustainability with the full board, on a bi-annual basis. Operating a number of cross-functional working groups, such as our climate change working group, human rights working group and network of ethics responsible officers ( a formal Business Ethics Forum that provides a mechanism for the E&C team to engage with operational and functional leadership throughout the organisation.)

Integrating sustainability into our risk management processes enables our business to identify and mitigate the full range of risks applicable to Wood. Taking a bottom up and top-down approach to identifying risks operates within the organisation as laid out in the group risk management framework. Visit our latest annual report and accounts for more information on our principle risks and risk management: https://www.woodplc.com/investors/annual-and-interim-reports Wood has a dynamic ESG risk register which includes the above topics. The risks that are within the register can be described as transversal risks, they are not confined to an individual operation or function. However, they are merely a sub-set of risks managed through the same risk management processes that operate across Wood. Having captured risks in the risk register which we evaluate the risks with potential to materially affect investor confidence. The register gives a clear line of sight to our most pressing risks. It is a dynamic document which is reviewed no less than quarterly or in the event of significant change or risk identification. Risk management is a key component in sustainability management particularly in our response to environmental risks, modern slavery and ethical conduct. For more information visit our sustainability website at https://www.woodplc.com/company/sustainability - you will also find access to our recent materiality assessment, sustainability strategy and various content on how we embed and deliver sustainability in our business.

Optional comment

Building strong relationships with our supply partners is essential to ensure we align on delivering sustainable value to the people and places we impact. We seek to work with suppliers that demonstrate strong social, environmental and economic awareness and ambition to contribute to sustainable development. All suppliers must sign up in compliance to Wood’s Supplier Code of Conduct. Our Supplier Evaluation and Management Process details Wood’s standard process for requesting, evaluating and approving new suppliers. It also defines the processes for ongoing supplier management, supplier performance management and supplier offboarding. Taking a risk-based approach, we assess suppliers on key topics such as HSE, bribery and corruption, modern slavery and financial health as part of supplier evaluation and ongoing assessment. Ongoing engagement by Wood’s supply chain team with suppliers seeks to embed Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) tools and processes to help us achieve our sustainability goals. Our global head of supply chain is part of Wood's Human Rights and Modern Slavery Oversight Committee, and is committed to ensuring the dissemination of training and guidance material in support of the principles and compliance with the principles. In addition, supply chain is represented at group level in several internal strategic working groups, including our climate change working group and inclusion and diversity working group.

Labour rights risks
Environmental risks
Corruption risks

Optional comment

Wood not only looks at risks to the business but also looks at the risks to our people and the planet. Having the ESG risk register brings our negative impacts together under one 'sustainability due diligence' umbrella which allows us the opportunity of more clearer understanding of the inter-connections between the different sustainable impacts. For example: impacts on the environment and the climate that, over a longer timeframe, will manifest as impacts on human rights; or impacts on human rights that can be mitigated but in a way that harms the environment in the immediate term. Wood is in the process of looking beyond its own operations and identifying our supply chain and partners and understanding where our ability lies to influence actual and potential negative impacts with each business relationship.

Concerns and grievance mechanisms

8. Are there any processes through which members of the company’s workforce can raise concerns about the company’s conduct related to human rights, labour rights, environment, or anti-corruption?

Addressing human rights and the other topics stated above within our value chain is crucial to ensuring we address our areas of evolving risk, where in our third party relationships our value chain extends beyond our immediate contractor base.

Optional comment

Safety, health and environmental incident data is reported globally into our in-house incident management and analysis tool, Corporate Analysis Incident Reporting System (CAIRS). Monthly and quarterly reports are provided to senior leadership and the Board on environmental performance, inclusive of data, trends and incidents. This provides visibility of performance and ensures HSE management is addressed at the highest level in the organisation. Our Ethics and Compliance (E&C) team monitor concerns through the Ethics Helpline and internal channels. All concerns are reviewed and necessary action is taken as appropriate. Learnings are shared through a variety of communication channels and influence both internal and external engagement. Wood has designated key leaders as Ethics Responsible Officers (ROs) to promote the Code and related ethics and compliance policies and procedures, as well as to support E&C initiatives. Throughout 2021, E&C engaged regularly with ROs through one-on-one sessions, as well as through formal meetings of the Business Ethics Forum (BEF). The BEF provides a mechanism for the E&C team to engage with operational and functional leadership throughout the organisation. During the meetings, E&C provided updates on the status of ongoing ethics and compliance projects; discussed the effectiveness of Wood’s ethics and compliance programme; identified matters of potential or actual 0ethics and compliance misconduct along with mitigation efforts with respect to unfavorable trends or ethics and compliance risks faced by Wood. During the year, E&C developed a new library of Ethics Moments, which enable leaders to easily prompt discussions with their teams about ethics and compliance issues. Fifty Ethics Moments were published in 2021 with the expectation of doubling this content in 2022. Another new facet of the ethics communication programme is the microlearning library, where employees can access 1-3 minute training videos covering various ethics and compliance related topics, such as competition and anti-trust, gifts and entertainment, and reporting and non-retaliation.

Response

8. Briefly describe practical actions the company has taken during the reporting period and/or plans to take to implement the human rights principles, including any challenges faced and actions taken towards prevention and/or remediation.

Our approach to human rights is aligned to the United Nations (UN) Declaration of Human Rights, the UN Guiding principles on Business and Human Rights and the UN Global Compact Principles. Wood is committed to operating our business in a transparent manner that aligns to global standards on human rights issues and the expectations of governments, investors and civil society. Human rights is a key element of Wood’s sustainability programme and a focus for multiple stakeholders within Wood as part of our governance structure, it is therefore imperative that we reflect these matters effectively in our management processes to ensure we deliver on our commitments. Our Human Rights and Modern Slavery Oversight Committee helps connect our Supply Chain, Commercial, People & Organisation and Sustainability teams in our commitment to prevent, detect and remedy human rights issues within Wood and our supply chain. Activities to evolve and advance our approach on human rights are communicated through monthly sustainability, as well as functional reporting to provide ELT and Board oversight. In addition, Wood remains committed to working fairly, transparently, and ethically through the trusted partnership of Building Responsibly, demonstrated in our business wide sustainability targets to ensure 100% of our labour suppliers sign up to and comply with our Building Responsibly Principles by 2025; and 100% of our suppliers embed Building Responsibly Principles in their supply chains by 2030. Detailing our progress on human rights in our 2021 modern slavery statement, our efforts during the year focused on the development of a supply chain strategy for delivery of our targets around the Building Responsibly Worker Welfare Principles, this included: • Developing a consistent definition of ‘labour supplier’ • Analysing specific worker welfare risks to develop a profile of our highest priority labour suppliers to better target our engagement • Initiating the revision of supplier governance rules, prequalification and monitoring which will be completed in 2022 • Conducting a series of workshops with external consultancy support to identify potential barriers to the implementation of the principals • Updating our Supplier Code of Conduct to embed the principles and updating the modern slavery guidance we provide to suppliers.

Wood has committed to championing worker welfare issues through our involvement with the business-led initiative Building Responsibly and set a series of goals to commit to action. Our goals include: Ensuring 100% of our labour suppliers sign up to and comply with our Building Responsibly Principles by 2025 and, 100% of our suppliers to embed Building Responsibly Principles in their supply chains by 2030. Through these actions we seek to raise the standard on worker welfare issues and create a level playing field so that competitiveness is not at the expense of the worker. The Building Responsibly Principles establish a common, global baseline for the treatment of workers in the engineering and construction industry. By collectively committing to and promoting these Principles, we foster a business environment that advances the safety, security, and welfare of all people—especially those working in the construction sector. An example of some of our training and awareness on key issues can be found on our supplier support hub, where we have adapted an internal human rights training course to suit our supply partners: https://www.woodplc.com/sustainability/profit/supplier-support-hub In addition, we have conducted several audits through the course of the reporting year on human rights issues and occupational health and safety - this forms part of our ongoing assurance programs and engagement efforts. Working with government and industry bodies such as the UK HSE, Wood is helping to advance key areas of occupational safety and health such as predictive analytics and working in partnership with a number of technology partners to advance our use of digital and technology solutions.

Optional comment

A pay equity was conducted in 2021 which included a review of over 3,500 employee salaries in engineering, engineering design and project management. This involved mapping individuals to our defined technical job frameworks and analysing individual salaries to our benchmarked salary bands in each country. The outcome and recommendations were approved by Wood Future Fit Steering Committee. Our analysis found that the global average compa ratio (salary to median of the salary range) was 101%, with no gender bias, aligned to our reward strategy – this outcome clearly demonstrates strong alignment with our pay philosophy to pay at median levels see our gender pay gap reporting for more details: https://www.woodplc.com/footer/policies-and-information/gender-pay-gap-report

10. In the course of the reporting period, how frequently were workers injured (injuries per hour worked)?

	Frequency of injury	Unknown	Choose to not disclose
Frequency of injury	0.18

Optional comment

We aim to deliver the highest standards of health and safety. Total recordable incident rate (TRIR) is the total of lost work cases, restricted work cases and medical treatment cases, per 200,000 work hours. In 2021, our TRIR was 0.18. For more data see our ESG data sheet on our data and reporting website:

11. In the course of the reporting period, what was the company’s incident rate?

	Incident rate	Unknown	Choose to not disclose
Incident rate	0.02

Optional comment

Lost time incident rate (LTIR) measures lost work cases per 200,000 work hours. Our LTIR improved in 2021 to 0.02. In total there were 15 lost time incident cases across the business, which represents 10 fewer than the previous year. The improvement in LTIR is indicative of Wood’s focus on risk exposure, targeted controls and the strong focus of project teams on support mechanisms. Strong performance in this area suggests that when injuries have occurred, they have generally been less severe in comparison to 2020.

Addressing labour rights issues our value chain is crucial to ensuring we address our areas of evolving risk, where in our third party relationships our value chain extends beyond our immediate contractor base. Where we have caused or contributed to adverse impact, this is recorded within Wood's Business Ethics Helpline. This remedy is available to both Wood employees or third parties and any concerns raised are fully investigation and necessary actions are taken, if required. For more information on our approach to ethics visit - https://www.woodplc.com/sustainability/profit/responsible-business-practice Detailed data on our health and safety performance can be found in our ESG data sheet at: https://www.woodplc.com/sustainability/data-and-reporting In addition, visit our People website to learn how we manage specific topics such as human rights, health and wellbeing or safety and security: https://www.woodplc.com/sustainability/people

13. Briefly describe practical actions the company has taken during the reporting period and/or plans to take to implement the labour rights principles, including any challenges faced and actions taken towards prevention and/or remediation.

Wood remains committed to working fairly, transparently, and ethically through the trusted partnerships we create. Detailing our progress on human rights in our 2021 modern slavery statement, our efforts during the year focused on the development of a supply chain strategy for delivery of our targets around the Building Responsibly Worker Welfare Principles, this included: • Developing a consistent definition of ‘labour supplier’ • Analysing specific worker welfare risks to develop a profile of our highest priority labour suppliers to better target our engagement • Initiating the revision of supplier governance rules, prequalification and monitoring which will be completed in 2022 • Conducting a series of workshops with external consultancy support to identify potential barriers to the implementation of the principals • Updating our Supplier Code of Conduct to embed the principles and updating the modern slavery guidance we provide to suppliers. Read more on our approach to human rights at: https://www.woodplc.com/sustainability/people/human-rights Supporting delivery of our gender balance goal, in 2021 we participated in the UN Gender Equality benchmarking group and developed functional plans across the group to increase inclusion and diversity. In 2021, female representation in senior leadership roles increased to 33% (2020: 31%). Inspiring our people to be inclusive every day, in 2021 we rolled out conscious inclusion training for over 36,000 of our colleagues.

Our focus has continued to be on the safety and welfare of our employees. Wood has continued to monitor, adjust and apply our guidance and practices as the pandemic has evolved in waves across our global footprint. The business has continued to follow the best available advice and we have taken the necessary steps to protect our employees in what has been a continually evolving situation. The move to hybrid working that started in 2020 has continued to help mitigate the business continuity risk that changing government and regulatory requirements have brought and will likely continue to do so in the medium-term. However, in turn this also presents an additional occupational health related risk in terms of isolation and poor mental health which requires additional measures to prevent serious harm. To address this risk a global Mental Health Strategy has been developed to coordinate mental health resources, including the Employee Assistance Programme as well as services provided by our Occupational Health Providers, which will be implemented in 2022. We continued to grow our Living Well at Wood SharePoint site, available to all employees and further supported our colleagues with our growing network of over 370 wellbeing champions globally.

Targets are important in steering the business and behaviours of the company. In setting our targets we have sought to address issues material to our business which: drive the direction of the business, focus on issues critical to our stakeholders, and we can contribute to global SDGs. We do not take the process of setting targets lightly; proposals are developed through engagement with our business. Once drafted targets are presented to the Executive Leadership team for discussion and development. Following engagement with our ELT they are presented to the Safety and Sustainability and Business Ethics (SSABE) committee before refinement and sign off at the ELT and endorsement by Board. Our targets remain dynamic, in that they are constantly under review, if we believe we can do better, we will evolve them. Please see Wood plc Sustainability webpages for more detail on our current targets. https://www.woodplc.com/sustainability/our-sustainability-goals IN addition to our sustainability programme targets, as a service provider we deliver expertise across each of the topic areas and work to client deadlines and targets to not only support our own contribution to managing each topic but advance the sustainability goals of our clients.

Overall Environment

21. Briefly describe practical actions the company has taken during the reporting period and/or plans to take to implement the environment principles, including any challenges faced and actions taken towards prevention and/or remediation.

As a business, we recognise our responsibility to the environment and our stakeholders to take action to reduce the environmental impact of our operations, be it climate change, waste plastics or ecosystem damage. We have committed to eliminate single use plastics (SUP) from all of our offices by 2025 and reduce Wood's scope 1&2 carbon emissions by 40% by 2030 on our pledge to net zero. The importance of reducing greenhouse emissions was heightened further in 2021 with the publication of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPPC) latest report. We recognise this urgency and have challenged ourselves around what else we can do. Our Board and ELT regularly review our carbon reduction target to ensure that it remains appropriate for Wood and are currently considering further ambition on scope 3 emissions, as well as the evolution of our current target. In 2021, Wood achieved a 56% reduction from our 2019 baseline on carbon reduction, however we are mindful this reflective of the impact of the pandemic and our need to focus on sustaining our adaptive behaviours as the business returns. Our new carbon management software, provided by Sphera, has given us a much improved ability to monitor and verify data and the verification of emissions factors used in our software provider’s system is undertaken as part of both our internal and external verifications. In addition, we have also enhanced our internal data assurance processes as well as taking steps to increase accountability across our operations. Each business unit now has a sustainability lead who is responsible for carbon reporting in their area of the business and who must sign off at the end of each reporting period that the emissions stated are an accurate reflection of those within their business. In January 2022, the business announced its intention to undertake a sale process for the built environment business. The impact of any agreed sale will be assessed to ascertain if a re-baseline of GHG emissions has been triggered in line with GHG protocol.

Wood's internal Ethics & Compliance partners with a third-party to anonymously survey employees in specific geographic regions for feedback on ethical culture. In 2021, this annual survey was distributed to over 3,500 employees in the Asia Pacific region. The survey results will help set training and communication priorities in 2022. We encourage employees to use their line manager as a first point of contact to report concerns, with additional “Speak Up” resources available, including another manager, People & Organisation, or Legal. As such, many matters are managed without E&C intervention. However, employees may also contact E&C directly or use our Ethics Helpline. On a quarterly basis, the Safety, Sustainability and Business Ethics Committee (SSABE) Committee is provided an update on the anti-corruption compliance programme and any flagged cases made through our ethics hotline within that period.

Our work with Building Responsibly talks to a much broader conversation that can include issues around corruption and how business navigates these challenges. Engaging our supply chain, Wood's supplier code of conduct and onboarding process ensures we take action to unearth areas of corruption and ensure we work with supplier aligned to our values and code of conduct. Our new supplier support hub now includes specific awareness training on human rights, which includes anti-bribery and anti-corruption.

8. Briefly describe practical actions the company has taken during the reporting period and/or plans to take to implement the anti-corruption principle, including any challenges faced and actions taken towards prevention and/or remediation.

A full update on our ethics and compliance programme can be found in our Annual Report and Accounts 2021: https://www.woodplc.com/investors/annual-and-interim-reports In June/July 2021, Wood announced settlements with the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) in the UK, the Department of Justice (DOJ) and Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in the US, and the Ministério Público Federal (MPF), the Comptroller General’s Office (CGU) and the Solicitor General (AGU) in Brazil, to resolve their respective bribery and corruption investigations into the past use of third parties in the legacy Amec Foster Wheeler business. In the UK, Wood entered a three year deferred prosecution agreement (DPA) relating to the use of third-party agents for bribery and corruption in five jurisdictions; Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, India and Brazil, over the period 1996 to 2014, before Amec plc acquired Foster Wheeler and prior to the combined firm’s acquisition by Wood in October 2017. Wood has also entered into a three-year DPA with the DOJ, a Cease & Desist order with the SEC, and leniency agreements with a term of 18 months with the CGU, AGU and MPF, all in relation to the historical use of third-party agents for bribery and corruption in connection with winning a project in Brazil. Earlier in the year, in March, Wood also reached a civil settlement of approximately $9m with Scotland’s Civil Recovery Unit in relation to the historical engagement of a third party agent, Unaoil, by a legacy joint venture and potential unlawful conduct. This resolves an investigation by the Crown Office Procurator Fiscal Service (COPFS) and the Civil Recovery Unit that was initiated following Wood’s self-reporting of the issue. Wood cooperated fully with all authorities in their investigations, which is reflected in the cooperation credit that Wood received from the authorities in their respective resolutions. Our improvements in relation to Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption were recognised in the resolution processes, most notably in that there was no requirement for the appointment of a monitor.
