LVMH's proactive initiatives to encourage employment of people with disabilities reflect priorities at the human, business and managerial levels. To coordinate and energize this commitment, the LVMH "Handicap Mission" was created in 2007.
With the active involvement of over 30 Group companies, this structure acts as a powerful driver to promote the employment of people with disabilities.
The "Handicap Mission" provides operational support for Human Resources managers to facilitate the hiring and long-term employment of people with disabilities. It also expands sourcing relationships with sheltered workshops.
In 2008 LVMH signed an agreement with AGEFIPH, a French agency for employment of workers with disabilities. The Group has made firm commitments covering integration, e-recruitment, training and career development for people with disabilities.
The Handicap Mission has notably worked with Guerlain and the Spa Guerlain on the Champs-Elysées, developing a two-fold initiative. Employees receive disability awareness training and Spa staff get special training in welcoming customers with disabilities.
