CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

GL EVENTS | COMPANY REPORT 2014 | CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY 81

Fifty different options are proposed for hierarchi- cal, functional and geographic mobility. Particular attention however is paid to functional mobility which increases career path opportunities and promotes sharing experiences between business units.

A specificity: temporary mobility Managing large international projects requires mobility for assignments for periods of 3 to 9 months with 80% of this demand met internally. In 2014, there were 95 conditions of this type in con- nection with large scale international events (the World Football Cup in Brazil, etc.).

Equal opportunity employment Beyond the diplomas, this involves above all recog- nising the expertise, skills and engagement of each, the entrepreneurial spirit, the will to succeed, team spirit. The diversity charter signed at the end of 2010 has provided a framework for action to promote this priority in our Group.

Starting from an environment providing favourable regulatory incentives, the idea was to develop actions in favour of recruitment, job stability and continued employment and developing skills by focusing on four priority areas: disabilities, gender, age and social integration.

Promoting employment of persons with disabilities The focus of Group business lines on receiving the public makes it particularly aware of challenges relating to disabilities, in particular with respect to access to its sites for trade shows and events. In 2013, the employment rate for disabled persons was 3.3% for the French workforce. The goal is increasing this to 5% by 2017. The policy promoting employment opportunities for disabled persons that began in 2012 with an audit, has led to the signature of an agreement with the French agency AGEFIPH in 2014. This guarantees that resources and tools are available to employees with disabilities to facilitate and support their job sta- bility and continued employment.
