INTEGRATED REPORT 2023

Work-study programme rate

In terms of work-study programmes, a new permanent contract was signed unanimously by the GRTgaz trade union organisations in July 2023. GRTgaz sees work-study as an ideal means of training, providing professional skills and integrating young people and workers who face barriers to employment. Considering diversity as an essential driver of its development, GRTgaz is committed to favouring the recruitment of female work-study students and those with disabilities. GRTgaz increased its work-study rate this year to 7.33% from 6.90% in 2022. Recruitment initiatives included strengthening GRTgaz’s visibility on social media and taking part in trade fairs.

With 77% of employees receiving training, GRTgaz is close to its 2023 training target. There are two main reasons why the 80% target was not reached this year: firstly, there were fewer training courses due to the time taken to set up the new R24 organisation. Beyond this, and more structurally, training provision is evolving: there is a transfer away from external, faceto- face training towards digital methods hosted internally on the PRO’DIGE platform (these courses are not yet accounted for in the training rate). Fundamentally, one of the goals of the Human Project is to develop new behavioural skills (“soft skills”) and managerial abilities relevant to our new priorities. Training has been made available this year on PRO’DIGE. The launch of the École du Gaz was another high point of this year.
