Testimony

“ Our companies in France are the institutions that integrate the large majority of peoples in the subject of diversity.  Nevertheless, discrimination in companies is a reality.  Discrimination is a repulsive in the area of ethics and is an aberration in the field of the economy.  The fight against discrimination en companies is not a question of compassion, but of common interest. The “baby boom” generation starts to retire, France recognises a deficit in hand labour.  It would be counter-productive for us to deprive ourselves  - under the pretext of the differences in the persons – of  considerable existing reserves of dynamism, competence and creativity.  The Charter fosters companies to act in order to profit from  competitive advantages through the representation in the organisation of the present diversity in society as a whole

Claude Bébéar, presidente  de IMS-Entreprendre pour la Cité,  Secretario General  de la « Charte de la diversité » de Francia
