In September 2022, the Executive Committee launched the 2nd edition of our “Women’s Mentoring” programme. During two half-day training sessions, the participants were able to discover mentoring and its good practices, the challenges of female leadership in 2022, and also the different types of leadership. The 9 mentees, from the United States, France, Australia-New Zealand, Sweden, Germany, Canada and the Netherlands, met their mentors and defined their goals. For almost a year, the pairs will have monthly exchanges, with one major objective: to encourage the development of each person by capitalising on the sharing of mutual experiences.
In France, Transdev and Agefiph (Association de Gestion du Fonds pour l’Insertion Professionnelle des Personnes Handicapées) have signed an agreement for a period of two years, from 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2023. This agreement reflects our commitment to implement a disability policy, integrated into our human resources policy. The company commits to objectives defined jointly with Agefiph on several themes: employment (recruitment and retention), awareness, training, protected sector. In return, Agefiph provides the company with financial resources adapted to the objectives pursued and supports it in its approach.
Our Group commitments complement any national or local actions addressing specific cultural and societal context, to deliver our Purpose to “empower freedom to move every day thanks to safe, reliable and innovative solutions that serve the common good”.
