Mobilizing social dialogue in order to attain objectives. The agreement holds that social dialogue is essential for securing results. This is why the document commences with a commitment to develop ‘constructive and high-quality social dialogue’, on the issues it meets in terms of equality, combatting discrimination, violence and work-life balance. All entities within the Orange group have to ensure that union organizations and/or personnel representatives, depending on local practice, are involved in the implementation and monitoring of action plans on this topic. The agreement’s signatories are thus demanding Orange group’s entities to set up specific committees tasked with implementing the agreement at local level and conducting a social dialogue meeting on these subjects at least once a year.
