This diagnosis identifiedmany areas for improvement, whichwill formthe pillars of the draft agreement. 2017 will be spent negotiating a three- year agreement with the trade union coordinators and implementing a disabilities taskforce and officers to integrate people with disabilities and keep them in employment. This policy complements the many local initiatives and strategies already being applied in the various divisions, such as the close, lasting partnerships developed with the assisted sec- tor. (See the Suppliers chapter in this report). Within the Leather Goods and Silk divisions, which are the main employers in France, the 2016 employment rate was slightly above 5%. At Saint-Louis in 2016, the production unit even exceeded the regula- tory threshold of 6% of disabled workers, both within its manufacturing process and in support functions or via subcontracting (maintenance of green spaces, components assembly crystal/metal).

2.3.3.4 Employment of disabled workers In the second half of 2016, the Group conducted an expert diagnosis within all of its companies in France in partnership with the Agefiph. This major diagnosis was an opportunity for over 20% of employees in France to give their perception of disability. Employees with disabilities were asked to complete a specific questionnaire to gather their views, expectations and suggestions. Over 50% responded. Finally, qualitative interviews attended by occupational health employees and employee representatives completed this initiative. The summary shows an employment rate in France of 3.80% in 2016 (excluding “reduction”). This rate includes the direct, full-time equivalent employment of 288 people with disabilities.
