It subsequently outlines the structuring axes of the training policy, that are three to date: improving the operational excellence of teams: quality training, – training on working methods, integration of new employees; working better together: training in management, in health and – safety, intercultural training, training trainers, and transversal operation for business experts; specific business training: training in new technologies, business – intelligence.

Total

The percentage of completion of People Reviews fell slightly, from 94% in 2018 to 90% as a result of a reorganisation within one of the French subsidiaries, Simu, where People Reviews could not be conducted. Nevertheless, the international roll-out and its integration into the HR procedure are underway as shown by the improvements in the indicator in Northern Europe and the Americas. Percentage of employees who progressed (internal mobility or promotion)  The rate of internal development rose slightly between 2018 and 2019, going from 7.74% to 8.29% of the workforce. Management will continue its efforts (definition of a mobility policy in 2020) in order to improve the rate of internal mobility.
