Prism’Emploi, the French association of employment agencies, announced that it has re-elected Gilles Lafon as president for the fourth consecutive year.

"I am delighted to continue the actions taken for the professionals of temporary employment, services and jobs,” Lafon said. “Faced with the upheavals in the world of work, our profession remains strong in proposals to meet the expectations of user companies and assets, and to share these good practices with the public authorities.”

Lafon is a seasoned professional in the temporary employment sector having been General Director of the temporary work branch for the ONET Group, President of the Professional Fund for Employment in Temporary Work (FPE TT) as well as President of the Temporary Social Action Fund (Fastt).

“We reached the 20,000th interim CDI (Contract Duration Indeterminée, or open-ended contract) in mid-July, a goal we are proud of,” Lafon said. “This result perfectly illustrates the profession's ability to offer innovative solutions for employment. To date, 21,565 interim CDIs have been signed.”
