Provisions for liabilities and charges are set up to cover probable outflows for the benefit of third parties without any equivalent consideration being received by the Group in
return. They mainly relate to disputes, restructuring costs, industrial, environmental and commercial risks relating to operations such as breach of contract, product returns, and employee-related risks.
These provisions are estimated on the basis of the most likely assumptions or by using statistical methods, depending on the nature of the risks.
Provisions for liabilities and charges are recorded either as Non-current liabilities or as Current liabilities, depending on their type. Provisions for liabilities or disputes which must be settled within 12 months of the closing date, and those linked to the normal operating cycle (such as product returns), are recorded as Current liabilities. Other provisions for liabilities and charges are recorded as Non-current liabilities.
