Le PAQTE.fr : 70 companies commit to the economic inclusion of deprived urban areas
On February 20, 2019, 70 companies, including half of the CAC40 and committed SMEs, decided to support the economic inclusion of the 1514 'priority districts of the City Policy' (QPV) or 'deprived urban areas'.
This support program, driven by IMPACT partners and Bpifrance, was launched last July by Julien Denormandie, Minister attached to the Minister for Territorial Cohesion and Relations with Territorial Communities, in charge of the Cities and housing.
There are now 7,500 additional third-level internship offers posted on thewww.monstagedetroisieme.fr for secondary school students in REP and REP+ schools. It should also be pointed out that a hundred buyers of large companies participate in meetings with VSEs and SMEs located in fragile areas (www.achatsimpactants.com).
The companies are mobilizing on four main topics over the next three years (until 2021):
RAISING AWARENESS: a better understanding of the business world by the youth
TRAINING: with easy access to apprenticeship contracts
RECRUITMENT: by supporting non-discriminatory recruitment practices
PURCHASING: with the development of responsible and inclusive purchasing
During this first stage, Julien Denormandie reaffirmed to all the employees mobilized : "The main challenge is to ensure that companies' commitments are experienced on the ground and that they improve the lives of people living in deprived urban areas".
The Minister thanked the companies for their commitment and the concrete actions that have emerged through the PAQTE annual report written for each one.
