For Orange being a responsible company first and foremost means recognising and supporting its people who are on the ground level in social links.
This commitment to being a responsible employer has been strongly reasserted in the new company project, Conquests 2015, which places the men and women of France Telecom-Orange firmly at the heart of the Group’s thinking.
With one goal: to be recognised by 2015 as one of the favourite employers in the main countries in which the Group operates.
To achieve this, Orange undertakes to be a group that is good to work for, by rethinking its view of human resources, adopting a new style of management and reasserting common values.
The new social contract proposed in France, the result of an unprecedented process of listening and dialogue, lays the foundations for a new social model and reaffirms the Group’s primary commitments as a responsible employer:
As an international group, a leader in numerous markets, France Telecom-Orange has a duty to set an example by promoting equal opportunity and combating all forms of discrimination in access to employment, career development and recognition.

promoting diversity and equal opportunity
France Telecom-Orange intends making equal opportunity a trademark of its human resources policy, right from the point of recruitment throughout its employees’ working lives.
This commitment to promote diversity and equal opportunity not only reflects the Group’s values, but also its conviction that diversity contributes to the company’s performance, innovation capacity and attractiveness.
The Group’s diversity policy is based on one flagship theme: gender equality in the workplace, and other themes on the basis of which each country builds its own policy as a function of local issues; helping disabled people to fi nd employment and develop in the workplace, combating any and all forms of discrimination within the company.
