Support for disadvantaged neighborhoods

Integration of young people from underserved urban neighborhoods

On May 15, 2008 Safran signed a nationwide agreement to promote employment of young people from disadvantaged neighborhoods as part of the government’s “Espoir Banlieues” program.

Safran’s active involvement in this program reflects a commitment to opening up opportunities for young people from disadvantaged neighborhoods to discover the company, help orient them towards career opportunities and provid training and employment. In 2009, some 236 young people (under 26) were welcomed by the Group for internship, work-study programs, or as full-time employees.

Safran is also a member of a network of 200 companies called IMS – “Entreprendre pour la Cité” – giving us access to proven expertise in addressing this employment challenge and providing a forum for feedback among companies who face similar issues.

As part of the French Finance Ministry’s “Espoir Banlieues” program to promote youth employment, the Safran Group has not only embraced the broad principles of this initiative, but also set concrete objectives. Through the end of 2010 the Group is committed to meeting these goals:
- 180 young people recruited under fixed-term or permanent contracts.
- 291 internships.
- 171 proposed work/study contracts.
