Dywedodd y Gweinidog hefyd fod Llywodraeth Cymru wedi cymeradwyo dros £41m o gymorth busnes i 96 o gwmnïau ledled Cymru yn y flwyddyn ddiwethaf trwy Gronfa Dyfodol yr Economi gafodd ei chreu i helpu busnesau i baratoi ar gyfer heriau'r dyfodol. 


Cafodd y Contract Economaidd ei lunio'n unswydd er mwyn i Lywodraeth Cymru allu datblygu perthynas newydd gryfach â busnesau ac ysgogi twf cynhwysol ac ymddygiad cyfrifol \- gan gynnwys darparu mwy o waith teg a datgarboneiddio. 


Mae'n golygu bod cwmnïau sy'n chwilio am gymorth bellach yn gorfod siarad â Llywodraeth Cymru ac ymrwymo i wneud rhywbeth er mwyn cael rhywbeth, y cyfan wedi'i seilio ar egwyddorion cydweithredu. 


Dywedodd Ken Skates, Gweinidog yr Economi:



> "Rwy'n hynod falch bod perthynas gref ac adeiladol Llywodraeth Cymru â busnesau wedi arwain at lunio a llofnodi mwy na 210 o Gontractau Economaidd mewn prin flwyddyn, ac mae llawer mwy i ddod. 
> 
> 
> "Mae'r contractau hyn wedi'u llofnodi gan gwmnïau o bob lliw a llun, o un pen o'r wlad i'r llall. Yn wir, mae'r ffaith fod dros hanner y contractau wedi'u llofnodi gan gwmnïau bach a micro yn dangos ein bod wedi taflu'n rhwyd yn bell a da hynny. 
> 
> 
> "Mae busnesau o bob rhan o Gymru wedi manteisio'n gyson ar y cyfle i siarad â ni ac i ddangos sut maen nhw'n gweithredu egwyddorion twf cynaliadwy, gwaith teg, iechyd, datgarboneiddio a sgiliau a dysgu \- y math o ymddygiad sy'n ganolog i'n Cynllun Gweithredu ar yr Economi.

> "Mae'n dda gennyf gyhoeddi ein bod, ers lansio'n Meysydd Gweithredu a Chronfa Dyfodol yr Economi gysylltiedig flwyddyn yn ôl, wedi llwyddo i gymeradwyo dros £41m o gymorth i 96 o gwmnïau ledled Cymru.

> "Yr her i ni nawr yw parhau i sefydlu, esblygu ac ehangu'r Contract Economaidd a'i ddefnyddio fel erfyn i'n helpu i ddatblygu gwlad o waith teg a chanddi economi carbon isel. Rydyn ni'n cymryd camau breision yn hyn o beth ac mae'r Contract Economaidd yn rhan annatod o lythyrau cylch gwaith Amgueddfa Cymru, y Llyfrgell Genedlaethol, Trafnidiaeth Cymru a'r Gronfa Buddsoddi mewn Twristiaeth newydd, gwerth £50 miliwn, sy'n cael ei darparu ar y cyd â Banc Datblygu Cymru.

> "Rydyn ni'n defnyddio'r Contract Economaidd hefyd i wella amodau gwaith yn yr Economi Sylfaenol mewn meysydd fel Twristiaeth, gyda chwmnïau fel Zip World yn cefnogi egwyddorion y Contract trwy ei gyfraniad cryf at yr economi a'r gweithlu lleol a'i ymrwymiad i gyfleoedd hyfforddi da a chyflog teg.

Bu'n flwyddyn gyntaf lwyddiannus yn ôl pob llinyn mesur ac rwy'n disgwyl ymlaen at weld y llwyddiant, twf economaidd a'r esblygiad hwnnw'n parhau dros y flwyddyn i ddod a thu hwnt."

The minister also confirmed that in the last year the Welsh Government had approved over £41 million of business support to 96 companies across Wales through its Economy Futures Fund which is designed to help businesses prepare for the challenges of the future. 


The Economic Contract been expressly designed to enable the Welsh Government to develop a new and strengthened relationship with business and to drive inclusive growth and responsible business behaviours – including increasing the availability of fair work and decarbonisation. 


It means that companies seeking support must now enter into an ongoing dialogue with Welsh Government and commit to a something for something approach that is built firmly on the principles of collaboration. 


Economy Minister Ken Skates said:



> “I am delighted that the Welsh Government’s strong and constructive relationship with business has seen us to put in place more than 210 Economic Contracts in just one year, with many more to come. 
> 
> 
> “These contracts have been agreed with companies of all shapes and sizes and across the length and breadth of Wales. Indeed, the fact that over half of the contracts are with small and microsized firms, demonstrates that we are, quite rightly, casting our net far and wide. 
> 
> 
> “Businesses across Wales have consistently taken the opportunity to engage with us and to proactively demonstrate how they are delivering against the principles of responsible growth, fair work, health, decarbonisation and skills and learning \- the business behaviours that are right at heart of our Economic Action Plan.
> 
> 
> “I am also pleased to announce that since the launch of our Calls to Action and associated Economy Futures Fund one year ago, we have successfully approved over £41 million of business support funding to 96 companies across Wales. 
> 
> 
> “Our challenge now is to continue to embed, evolve, and expand the Economic Contract and use it as a tool to help us build a fair work nation with a low carbon economy. We are making good progress on this, with the Economic Contract now embedded within the remit letters of The National Museum of Wales, The National Library, with Transport for Wales and with a new £50 million Wales Tourism Investment Fund that is being delivered  in partnership with the Development Bank of Wales.  
> 
> 
> “We are also using the Economic Contract to improve working conditions within the Foundational Economy in areas like Tourism, with companies like Zip World blazing the trail and embracing the principles of the Contract through its strong contribution to the local economy and workforce and its commitment to good training opportunities and fair pay. 
> 
> 
> “The Economic Contract will evolve as the priorities of business and government evolve to help us build the prosperous, fair and resilient economy that Wales needs and deserves. It’s been a successful first year by many measures and I look forward to continued success, evolution and economic growth over the coming year and beyond.”
