For the 20th edition of the European Disability Employment Week, the Ortec Group is forming a human chain of solidarity. From 14 to 18 November 2016, the employees have been invited to take photographs of themselves holding hands. Once assembled, all the photos, taken from all around France, in the offices, on the worksites… will form a human chain of solidarity to support the employment of disabled persons. The goal?

Recruitment of disabled persons, maintenance in employment, awareness-raising workshops, support, collaboration with the sheltered sector – human values and concrete actions every day to raise awareness, advance mentalities and tackle prejudice with regard to the disabled. </p> <p>To further strengthen its approach, each year the Ortec Group actively participates in the EDEW initiative. Organised since 1997, the European Disability Employment Week has the aim of advancing the debate on the social integration of persons with a disability. On the occasion of this week of activism, numerous initiatives are organised in all Ortec Group branch offices: team talks, workshops, meetings, presentation of associations dedicated to disabled persons, but also solidarity marches, competitions, exhibitions. And the Talentéo conference based around the "Vestiaires" and "Vestiaires libérés" series (French television comedy based on the lives of several disabled characters, which takes place in the changing rooms of a swimming pool) with the exceptional participation of, Adda Abdelli, the actor and screenwriter. </p> <h2>Each link matters!</h2> <p>For the 20th edition, each employee can contribute to this noble initiative. Show your values. Share. Meet others. Work together to take things forward. The idea is simple. Alone, in pairs, by threes or as a team, colleagues can photograph themselves holding hands. Photos posted on the Facebook Ortec La Vie Ensemble and Twitter La Vie Ensemble social networks or sent to the email address orteclavieenemble@ortec.fr will be assembled to form a great human chain of solidarity. For each link, €1 will be donated to a disabled support association.</p> <h2>And many other initiatives</h2> <p>In parallel, numerous other initiatives will fill European Disability Employment Week from 14 to 18 November: vernissage of the exhibition of testimonies from employees with a disability, drawing competition, solidarity march, partner meetings, participation in job forums for disabled persons… </p> <p>Stay connected and follow all the initiatives organised by Ortec as part of this week of activism in support of the employment of disabled persons.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ortec-group.com/edew-2016-human-chain-solidarity/">Ortec supports the EDEW initiative by forming a human chain of solidarity</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ortec-group.com">Ortec Groupe</a>.</p> ]]> </content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.ortec-group.com/edew-2016-human-chain-solidarity/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Ortec at the Lambda Mu risk-management congress</title> <link>http://www.ortec-group.com/congres-lambda-mu/</link> <comments>http://www.ortec-group.com/congres-lambda-mu/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 12 Oct 2016 14:42:49 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator> <![CDATA[ Romain Garcin ]]> </dc:creator> <category> <![CDATA[ News ]]> </category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.ortec.fr/congres-lambda-mu-2/</guid> <description> <![CDATA[ <p><img width="128" height="72" src="http://www.ortec.fr/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/CREAS-RS-site-corpo-ANG-LAMBDA-MU-17.10.2016_SITE-ORTECRECRUTE_1500x844.png" class="attachment-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="lambda-mu" style="float:left; margin:0 15px 15px 0;" />From 11 to 13 October 2016, Ligeron, a subsidiary of the Ortec Group, participates in the 20th Lambda Mu congress, organised by IMdR (Institute for Risk Management), in Saint-Malo, France. </p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ortec-group.com/congres-lambda-mu/">Ortec at the Lambda Mu risk-management congress</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ortec-group.com">Ortec Groupe</a>.</p> ]]> </description> <content:encoded> <![CDATA[ <img width="128" height="72" src="http://www.ortec.fr/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/CREAS-RS-site-corpo-ANG-LAMBDA-MU-17.10.2016_SITE-ORTECRECRUTE_1500x844.png" class="attachment-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="lambda-mu" style="float:left; margin:0 15px 15px 0;" /><h2>Lambda Mu, the congress dedicated to risk management</h2> <p>Organised on the theme &#8220;Risk management in a changing world&#8221;, this edition will be dedicated to the analysis of recent major evolutions and their impact in terms of risk management.

The competition was organized based on the "Chain Challenge" principle between October 17 and 21 2016, and encouraged Ortec teams to apply their spirit of innovation in an atmosphere of enthusiasm and competition. Objective: to bring out good ideas from the field and get employees more deeply involved in the Group's innovation approach.

Throughout the year, isolated operations, theme campaigns, dedicated events such as the Innovation Week, are organised to get the full benefit from the creativity and innovation of all our workers. Because in the Ortec Group, we are convinced that good ideas can come from anywhere and everywhere!</p> <p>The <em>Grand défi Agence</em> is new in 2016, and forms part of the Group&#8217;s Innov’O permanent challenge open to employees throughout the year. The purpose of this one-off action organised from October 17 to 21 in all the Group&#8217;s branch offices is to firmly place innovation at the heart of operations. The principle? Each branch office nominated to contribute to the challenge has 4 hours to deposit 3 innovative ideas on the Innov’O internal cooperation site before in turn nominating another branch office to pick up the challenge. This simple and fun challenge calls upon a team spirit to get started and to innovate together.</p> <p>The <em>Grand défi Agence</em> has been a resounding success, confirming the motivation of employees in contributing to the Group&#8217;s innovation process. Branch offices from the 4 corners of France became involved on the first day of the challenge, with a competitive team spirit. There were very many good ideas. Their relevance proves that innovations that will improve the daily life of the Group and services offered to its customers begin with our men and women at the heart of our businesses, in the field.</p> <p>Thank you to everyone for your participation.</p> <p>On the same topic: <em><a href="http://www.ortec-group.com/innovo-collaborateurs-innovent/" target="_blank">Innov’o – The Challenge for Innovative Employees</a></em></p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ortec-group.com/130-branches-innovate/">When the Ortec Group&#8217;s 130 branches innovate</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ortec-group.com">Ortec Groupe</a>.</p> ]]> </content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.ortec-group.com/130-branches-innovate/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>An image to sign the safety commitment</title> <link>http://www.ortec-group.com/image-to-sign-safety-commitment/</link> <comments>http://www.ortec-group.com/image-to-sign-safety-commitment/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Tue, 04 Oct 2016 13:50:45 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator> <![CDATA[ Romain Garcin ]]> </dc:creator> <category> <![CDATA[ Life at Ortec ]]> </category> <category> <![CDATA[ News ]]> </category> <category> <![CDATA[ sécurité ]]> </category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.ortec.fr/?p=7237</guid> <description> <![CDATA[ <p><img width="128" height="85" src="http://www.ortec.fr/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/ARBE--VIE-4-21.jpg" class="attachment-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="safety" style="float:left; margin:0 15px 15px 0;" />In 2016, in the frame of the Local-Branch Tour undertaken by the Executive Management, over 2,000 Ortec Group employees made a commitment to safety. They created a unique image, the Tree of Life, made up of their own handprints. Through this symbolic and powerful gesture, they sign individually and together their commitment to comply with and apply the Safety Action Plan.

Organised every year, these meetings play a fundamental role in the deployment of a risk-prevention plan for the Ortec Group. The goal: to get as close as possible to the field, in the local branches. Raising the awareness of the teams. Discussing the strong points and areas for improvement. And implementing the Action Plan to reach the safety objectives.</p> <p>Each year, the Executive Management thus makes a tour of the local branches, to reach out to each employee. Because within Ortec, the safety commitment is the commitment of each individual.</p> <h2>Both an individual and collective commitment</h2> <p>In 2016, in the frame of the Local-Branch Tour, 20 local branches in 4 countries brought together over 2,000 employees. To sign their commitment to aim for &#8220;0 accidents&#8221;, the employees were invited to place their handprint on a painting representing part of a tree. At the end of each meeting, a new image was thus created. At the end of the tour, the 20 paintings collected allowed the composition of a single image: the Tree of Life.</p> <p>This tree, composed of several hundreds of handprints of all sizes and colours, is on display at the Aix-en-Provence headquarters and symbolises the individual and collective commitment of the Group&#8217;s employees for safety.</p> <p>Find out more about the <a href="http://www.ortec-group.com/group/safety-policy/">Ortec Group Safety</a> policy</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ortec-group.com/image-to-sign-safety-commitment/">An image to sign the safety commitment</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ortec-group.com">Ortec Groupe</a>.</p> ]]> </content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.ortec-group.com/image-to-sign-safety-commitment/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Antipol 2.0 – visit of Ortec installations</title> <link>http://www.ortec-group.com/antipol-2-0-visit-installations/</link> <comments>http://www.ortec-group.com/antipol-2-0-visit-installations/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 03 Oct 2016 08:18:09 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator> <![CDATA[ Romain Garcin ]]> </dc:creator> <category> <![CDATA[ Home page ]]> </category> <category> <![CDATA[ Inside Ortec ]]> </category> <category> <![CDATA[ antipol ]]> </category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.ortec-group.com/antipol-2-0-visite-installations-2/</guid> <description> <![CDATA[ <p><img width="128" height="65" src="http://www.ortec.fr/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/ACTU-WEBTOP-NEWS-MINI-725x372-EN1.png" class="attachment-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="Antipol 2.0 – visit of Ortec installations" style="float:left; margin:0 15px 15px 0;" />Discovery of the waste processing centre, visit of the new-generation installations and presentation of the innovative treatment processes – here is the programme for the "Antipol 2.0" day.

The motivations at the origins of the modernisation project, called &#8220;Valteo&#8221;, are numerous: diversification of the offer, increase in the treatment capacity and the recycled proportion, the use of innovative recycling techniques, anticipation of the evolution of environmental legislation and the reduction of CO2 emissions.</p> <p>Valteo has been a complete success as, after the completion of the work, Antipol has increased its treatment capacity to 50,000 t of waste per year. The recycled proportion of the waste has also been increased. As for the carbon footprint, it has been reduced from 989 t eqC to 87 t eqC. In the medium term, the centre is aiming at zero emissions for the treatment of liquid waste.</p> <p>Waste collection, sorting, regrouping, pre-treatment and treatment – today, the treatment centre in Fontenay-le-Comte (France) offers even more services.

It was necessary to decontaminate it in order to comply with rehabilitation objectives.</p> <p>As its Owner and the organisation responsible for the conversion of the site, EPFN, assisted by the ENVISOL engineering and consulting firm, commissioned OGD Normandie with the management of the site&#8217;s rehabilitation.</p> <p>To do this, OGD designed and implemented a complementary technical programme to process 2,800 tonnes of contaminated soil:</p> <ul> <li>management of hot spots, about 800 tonnes of land very heavily loaded with oil (beyond any possibility of biological treatment) outsourced to a processing system involving thermal desorption with recovery of the resulting decontaminated materials;</li> <p></br></p> <li>on-site treatment by activated biopile of nearly 2,000 tonnes of soil over a 10-month period. This perfectly controlled bioremediation technique consisted in speeding up the natural degradation processes of pollutants through bacterial activity. OGD Normandie went even further, boosting the process by <strong>Environmental enrichment with psychrophilic bacterial cultures</strong>. In 10 months, the reduction of total hydrocarbon content was observed in over 80%, including the most difficult-to-process compounds.</li> </ul> <h2>An innovative transitional management solution </h2> <p><strong>At the end of the period of initial treatment and after achieving remediation goals, EPFN asked OGD to set up a transitional site management solution.</strong> As some of the soil could not be backfilled on the site, the goal was to find a solution to improve the visual appearance of the area in its environment, pending construction work.</p> <p>In this context, OGD selected a set of plants specialised in <strong>rhizodegradation</strong>. This decontamination method is based on the specificities of the root system of plants which activate micro-organisms sown prior to the project in order to continue the breakdown of hydrocarbons over time. This inexpensive solution requires no synthetic products or maintenance. It is visually integrated into the urban landscape and creates a biodiversity space in the city.</p> <p>For this project, OGD stood out thanks to the support provided to the client and the implementation of a rehabilitation programme in several stages, using effective remediation techniques and eco-friendly bioengineering.</p> <p><strong>Key information about the project:</strong></p> <ul> <li>2,800 tonnes of treated soil</li> <li>duration of the site: September 2014 to September 2015: 10 months for bioremediation, since November 2015 for rhizodegradation</li> <li>Pollutants processed: hydrocarbons, HCT, HAP</li> <li>Techniques applied: biopile, thermal desorption, rhizodegradation</li> <li>Results: reduction of hydrocarbons from 8,000 ppm to 1,500 ppm (initial target 2,500 ppm)</li> <li>end waste volume: 0.1% of initial quantities</li> </ul> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ortec-group.com/conversion-huileries-normandes/">OGD provides turnkey conversion of the site of the former Huileries Normandes</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ortec-group.com">Ortec Groupe</a>.</p> ]]> </content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.ortec-group.com/conversion-huileries-normandes/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>The Innov’o 2016 correspondents day</title> <link>http://www.ortec-group.com/la-journee-des-correspondants-innovo-2016/</link> <comments>http://www.ortec-group.com/la-journee-des-correspondants-innovo-2016/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 08 Jul 2016 14:50:10 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator> <![CDATA[ Romain Garcin ]]> </dc:creator> <category> <![CDATA[ Life at Ortec ]]> </category> <category> <![CDATA[ News ]]> </category> <category> <![CDATA[ innov'O ]]> </category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.ortec.fr/la-journee-des-correspondants-innovo-2016-2/</guid> <description> <![CDATA[ <p><img width="128" height="78" src="http://www.ortec.fr/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/GABARIT-ORTEC.EN-TOP-NEWS-MINI-1024x631.png" class="attachment-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="THE INNOV’O 2016 CORRESPONDENTS DAY" style="float:left; margin:0 15px 15px 0;" />published on 08/07/2016 From 2015 results to 2016 targets – why does it work and how to do more?

The Good Ideas Prize was created in 2014, and is now firmly anchored in the Group&#8217;s daily routine. Now that Correspondents have feedback from the first two years, they can get an even better idea of how the program works and analyse the results of actions that they perform every day.</p> <p>After a detailed discussion of 2015 results (number, nature and source of ideas), Correspondents review actions that they are setting up to promote the challenge to their colleagues. Trend charts, emails, mini-conferences, promotional videos, discussion sessions, everything necessary for mutual inspiration to build the 2016 action plan. The challenge is big because the target for this year (fixed by the Correspondents themselves) is to receive 1 300 ideas!</p> <h2><strong>New Innov’O web space– that is where it all happens!</strong></h2> <p>Correspondents have an important ally to help them reach their target. A preview of the new web site is presented, it is more ergonomic, more intuitive and especially more extensive than before. This new tool is eagerly awaited by Correspondents, the Steering Committee and employees, and is much more than a simple ideas box. The user experience is boosted by new functions and sections.</p> <p>Innovations are recorded by category and sub-category and are perfectly integrated into a smooth and complete validation circuit.</p> <p>Ideas are presented in the form of a shop window, and are visible to everyone. Therefore, anyone can log in, inform themselves and react at any time during the year. This is because the aim of Innov’O is to become a permanent ideas laboratory, and not just an isolated competition. The new space was enthusiastically welcomed by the Correspondents and will be inaugurated during the month of July 2016.</p> <h2><strong>The Ortec spirit of innovation is all around us</strong></h2> <p>Correspondents continue their Day by holding discussions on other ongoing and upcoming projects: the Ortec Digital Committee, Innovation Cafés, Innovation Week, the Pollutec exhibition. And progress with « Made in Ortec » innovations such as ONE, EOLBOX and the electric cleaning truck. These programs assure that Ortec innovation is living and is shared daily, and that it continues to grow. Enough to motivate Innov’O Correspondents who will make more field visits to promote the program and encourage employees to deposit their ideas and innovations.</p> <p><strong>The Innov’O 2016 Correspondents Day in numbers</strong></p> <ul> <li>27 April 2016</li> <li>60 correspondents present</li> <li>8 hours of discussions, analyses and implementation of actions</li> <li>2016 targets: 1500 registrations, 1300 ideas</li> </ul> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ortec-group.com/la-journee-des-correspondants-innovo-2016/">The Innov&#8217;o 2016 correspondents day</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ortec-group.com">Ortec Groupe</a>.</p> ]]> </content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.ortec-group.com/la-journee-des-correspondants-innovo-2016/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
