By

With shorter working hours and generous paid holidays, there are a range of reasons why the working culture in France is respected worldwide. The country is also home to many of the world’s biggest brands, spanning a variety of sectors, which means that there are plenty of opportunities, no matter which industry you work in. So, if you’re considering joining the French workforce, take a look at the following companies which are all leading the way in terms of employee satisfaction.

1. SAP

SAP may not be headquartered in France, but the German software company has proven immensely popular with its French staff. Specialising in enterprise software to improve the management of business operations and customer relations, the development of this technology has also resulted in plenty of job opportunities in SAP across a huge range of industries across France.

According to employee feedback left on Glassdoor, SAP is one of the best places to work in France in 2020. One senior consultant at the company wrote that “everything is done to ensure your wellbeing in the business: events, wellbeing workshops, a relaxation room [as well as] attractive pay.” SAP also ranked sixth on the World’s Best Workplaces 2019 survey by Great Place to Work, with 92% of staff saying they would be proud to tell others they work there.

2. L’Oréal

L’Oréal is one of the world’s most famous and successful beauty businesses. As well as the L’Oréal Paris label, the L’Oréal Group also counts top brands including Lancôme, Maybelline and Garnier among its subsidiaries.

In 2018 the company was voted the second most attractive French employer by LinkedIn, based on metrics including how non-employees engage with the company, job interest and retention. Jean-Claude Le Grand, the company’s senior VP talent development and chief diversity officer, believes that L’Oréal is so popular with its team because of what he calls its “unique DNA: our passion for beauty, our culture of innovation and our entrepreneurial spirit,”.

L’Oréal also recently demonstrated its loyalty to its employees by announcing it would not lay off any staff in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, and would continue to pay the full salaries of all 13,400 employees across France.

3. Saint-Gobain

Saint-Gobain is a French multinational corporation in the building materials industry, creating designs and products for the construction, transport, and healthcare sectors, amongst others. The business takes particular pride in its innovation, noting that one in four of its products did not exist five years ago.

Saint Gobain was the highest-rated French company in Forbes’ World’s Best Employers 2019, which is based on 1.4 million employment recommendations. More recently, it was also awarded Top Employers France 2020 certification, in addition to top European and global status. Comprehensive research undertaken by the Top Employers Institute revealed that Saint-Gobain “provides exceptional employee conditions, nurtures and develops talent throughout all levels of the organisation and has demonstrated its leadership status in the HR environment.”

4. BNP Paribas

The French international banking group is the eighth largest in the world by total assets, and a leading bank in the Eurozone. It defines its mission as: “[contributing] to [a] responsible and sustainable economy by financing and advising clients according to the highest ethical standards”.

BNP Paribas topped LinkedIn’s list of ‘Top Companies’ in France 2019, shooting up six places since the previous year. This was calculated according to the attractiveness of the company, its interactions with employees, the interest in published job offers, and talent retention. Elsewhere, the business won the ‘best use of benefits technology’ award at the Employee Benefits Awards 2019, recognising its utilisation and adaptation of technology to achieve effective strategies for employee engagement, recognition or reward.

Simple ways to create an organised office space

If your job requires you to work in an office, then the chances are you’re surrounded by your colleagues and all have your own individual work space. Environments like these present many advantages, such as good team communication and atmosphere, but working in an office can come with its downsides.

For any of you who work in an office, you’ll know how easy and quickly the space around you can become rather cluttered and unorganised. Not only can this present an untidy appearance when people visit your place of work, it can also affect your productivity and present potential hazards which could cause harm to both you and your colleagues.

In order to keep an organised office space, it’s important that each individual does their bit to help maintain a tidy place of work for all. If you feel like your work space could do with a declutter and a more organised appearance, then hopefully the below points will come in useful to you.

Think about storage

The key to creating an organised work space is to think about the different forms of storage you could use. Many offices will often have copious amounts of important documents and folders which can take up large amounts of space. If this is the case for you and you find yourself with documents which are important but you don’t need close by, then it may be worth investing in some archive boxes or other forms of storage. By doing this you can keep your documents in a safe and organised place for when you need to access them at a later date.

Go paperless where possible

Storage is a great place to start but it’s unlikely your place of work will have large amounts of space for the amount of documents you and your colleagues will need. With this in mind, it’s important to try and go paperless where possible. Desks and surrounding areas can often consist of paperwork that could easily be stored on your computer, for example, using Google Drive. Switching from physical documents to those online, means you can save space and you’ll find it easier to access and share documents with your colleagues.

By following steps like those mentioned above and more, you can play your part in creating a more organised place of work. Not only will this help boost your productivity, it will also reduce any hazardous risks around you and create a more professional appearance for anyone visiting your office.

Understanding UK Work Visas – First Step For Working In The UK

By
Claire James

If you are thinking about making the move to the UK there are plenty of parameters to check out. The first, and probably most important, thing to look for is a working visa. With the UK in an uncertain position right now, due to the travel restrictions and various global lockdowns as well as the pending implications of Brexit, there are still measures you can look into to begin preparations to relocate.

In the past few years, the UK government has tweaked the criteria of migrants looking to find work from outside the EU. ‘Managed migration’ has become quite a contested topic, with salary thresholds and language qualifications being the two greatest challenges facing non-EU workers from gaining access to the UK with a work visa.

If you are an EU citizen, you have the freedom to travel and work legally in the UK until the end of 2020 when the Brexit deal is set to go through. Of course, the current global climate is very much up in the air right now when it comes to foreign travel, and depending on how the rest of the year plays out we might see an extension or changes to the Brexit deal.

What Is A Skilled Worker?

The term ‘skilled worker’ can be a little confusing in and of itself. Essentially, a skilled worker visa for the UK encompasses people working as:

  • Academics and researchers;
  • Scientists, mathematicians, engineers, and technology experts;
  • Doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals;
  • Any other market sector with a skill shortage at the time of your application.

If you’re looking to set up in the UK as a self-employed skilled worker, you’ll either need to have at least 50,000 GBP in investments or a fantastic startup pitch that shows plenty of scope for growth and innovation.

How Can You Qualify For A UK Skilled Worker Visa?

The most common way of gaining a UK visa is by going through the Tier 2 (General) visa application process. To qualify for a UK skilled worker visa you must be earning a salary of 30,000 GBP. You have to have an employer in the UK who can approve this salary and help you gain access to the country. Your General visa lasts for up to six years and will cover you as long as you are in employment with the organization that approved your work permit.

The Tier 2 General visa is the only long-term work visa offered in the UK. For anyone who is interested in the possibility of transferring to the UK via their current employer, a Tier 2 intra-company transfer visa is available, saving you the trouble of finding a suitable employer in the UK before moving.

As we’ve mentioned earlier, EU citizens right now are not in need of a skilled worker visa. However, come January 2021 (as things stand), the UK leaves the EU and the requirement of a skilled worker visa will stretch to EU citizens. So what do you need to demonstrate prior to your application being approved?

  • Sufficient understanding of the English language;
  • Ten years of a clean criminal record;
  • A sponsorship and job offer from a licensed UK employer;
  • Able to provide the required savings and salary thresholds.

What If I Can’t Apply For A Skilled Worker Visa?

Currently, workers classed as non-skilled from outside the EU are not eligible for work within the UK. This is because low-skilled jobs are reserved for UK/EU citizens. With the impending Brexit deal these circumstances are potentially subject to change, so I would keep an eye on this situation as it develops into early 2021. You may find the job pool opens up to include or even prioritize non-EU citizens depending on your region.

How Much Does A UK Visa Cost?

Currently, it will cost £610 to apply for a Tier 2 General visa, and a further £610 per person for any family dependants. You can check out the UK government’s website at gov.uk for any potential changes or exceptions, as well as the prices of all other visas. Cost depends largely on the quality and length of the visa, so each one is different.

How Do I Apply For My UK Visa?

You should have a UK visa application center nearby where you can submit your application. A full list of the worldwide application centers can be found by visiting gov.uk. Just like the costs of each visa is different, the documents you need to show change on a tier to tier and even visa to visa basis. If you’re looking for a Tier 2 General visa for skilled workers you will need to provide:

  • Passport or travel ID;
  • Bank statements or a statement of financial security from your employer sponsor;
  • Proof of your English language ability;
  • Confirmation of your payment of the healthcare charge.

With the UK in an interesting position heading towards 2021 in terms of its position in the EU as well as the lasting after-effects of COVID-19, there might never have been a better time to take the plunge and make the move to work and live in the United Kingdom. If you are a skilled worker you have an excellent chance to take advantage of any job offers from UK employers. Once you have the sponsorship of a licensed company, getting a skilled worker visa is simple enough, provided you have the relevant documents and get all your permit applications sent off with plenty of time.

There are other things to consider when you land in the UK, like housing and registering your visa with the police service, and all this information and more can be found by visiting the gov.uk site. It is the home of all things government-related for the UK. Any updates or changes to migrant status can be found there. You can currently apply for full UK citizenship once you have resided there for five years. Finally, I wish you luck in your new challenge!

What does the carbon footprint of 6 UK cities actually look like?

By
Claire James

Over recent years there has been a global surge in trying to reduce the carbon footprints of businesses, cities and individuals alike. People across the world are making numerous changes to their everyday lifestyle, to try and improve the environment and the way we live. With the current health pandemic happening across the world, it has seen a significant reduction in the amount of carbon emissions being emitted across the globe; with a huge part of this being down to fewer vehicles on the roads and minimal numbers of planes in the sky.

Prior to the pandemic though, many cities across the UK and further afield were being criticised for the amount of carbon emissions they were producing on a daily basis. To put this into perspective, Utility Bidder conducted a study which looked in depth at the carbon emissions of six UK cities in 2017. Some of the cities featured within the study include London, Belfast and Glasgow, all of which can be looked at in more detail below.

London

As the capital of England and one of the most popular cities across the world, it comes as no surprise that London was at the higher end of the scale for the amount of carbon emissions the city produces on a daily basis. The study reports that during 2017, London produced a staggering 81,394 tonnes of carbon emissions. To put this into perspective, that weight alone is enough to fill a 354m tall cube, which is taller than the majestic Shard building at 310m tall.

Belfast

The Irish city of Belfast is popular amongst locals and tourists alike, but surprisingly, the amount of carbon emissions the city produces is at the lower end of the scale. During the year the carbon emissions were recorded, Belfast only produced 4,198 tonnes, which is considerably lower than London. 4,198 tonnes would be enough to fill a 132m tall cube, compared to the famous Titanic Belfast which is 38m tall.

Glasgow

In comparison to London, the Scottish city of Glasgow also has a relatively low number of daily carbon emissions it produces. It was reported that during 2017, the city produced around 7,175 tonnes of emissions each day, enough to fill a 157m tall cube. To understand the scale of this, Glasgow Tower is the tallest building in Scotland and stands at around 127m tall. We’ve only outlined three of the six cities mentioned in Utility Bidder’s study, but when comparing the amount of carbon emissions the cities produce against their famous buildings and landmarks, you can start to understand the true scale of the issue.

Ways to Protect Your Business When Providing Advice Online

By

If you provide a professional service, your knowledge is likely what you sell. But what happens if your advice isn’t correct? Consequences are a sure thing for every mistake made.

There are a lot of factors that will go into how badly this bad advice will affect your businesses. Sometimes these disputes can be solved with an apology, and other legal action will be required.

So, how can you protect your businesses when these matters arise? Read on to find out.

Have A Disclaimer

Let it be clearly stated on your website through the use of a disclaimer, your communications and on any contracts that consumers and clients are totally responsible for the decision they make based on any advice, financial or otherwise, provided on them by your business. This is sometimes enough to help your case when claims are made because while you can provide advice to

Usually, these stop any legal action from coming against you as you have made it very clear that you are providing advice only, not forcing anyone to take action base o that advice.

Legal battles

Mistakes are inevitable. Some are minor, and others can have damaging repercussions. If your business faces negligence claims, the costs can be financially damning, and a costly lawsuit could result. This is where professional indemnity insurance can play a vital role in your business. It is crucial if you have a business that requires providing advice that you have a professional indemnity policy for your business, and the cost of any legal suit will be covered.

Public Relations

Of course, just because you win a legal battle doesn’t mean you’re going to win in the public opinion court. If your good name is dragged in the courts – and then through the media – there is a chance that your current and potential clients will know about it.

So how are you protecting your business? Are you looking to fight the case and clearing your name? Or are you looking to settle early, reduce exposure, but appear guilty to outsiders?

A good PR team will be able to help you repair your brand’s reputation following a legal crisis and help you maintain your customer’s favour or regain any lost trust in your company.

Regulatory Intervention

Of course, just because your business has survived before the courts and the subsequent reputational fallout does not mean that you are guaranteed to continue in your chosen field of work. You may now be subject to review by the relevant industry authorities or regulators, so it is important that you are also prepared for that.

So how are you protecting yourself from this?

Again, having an experienced legal team to fight for you can help. Usually, the only way you protect yourself from all the consequences in the courts is having a strong legal team and an ironclad professional indemnity insurance policy top back you up.

With so much at stake, it’s essential that you ensure your business is protected against the dangers associated with the sale of your knowledge.

Why Modular Buildings Are the Future of Construction

By
John Richardson
-

Gone are the days when pre-fabricated buildings were perceived as a last resort quick and homogenous solution to housing. They have been embraced widely and are improving today’s building practices. Furthermore, there is every reason to believe that the future of the construction industry is going in that direction. Among the reasons for this argument is that the eco-friendliness and efficiency of these buildings have reached unbelievable levels. Besides this, the makers of modular structures have already put up masterpieces of buildings across the globe.

Modular buildings explained

Modular buildings are products of modular construction, which is a process where a building is constructed a way for from its site in a controlled factory setting. This method is preferred by businesses and other organizations due to its cost-effectiveness, speed in which the structure can be ready for use, and possibility of different usages.

Among some of the buildings that developers have constructed so far by employing this concept include:

·         Hotels

·         Student housing facilities such as hostels

·         Healthcare facilities like offices and others

·         Residential houses

·         Multifamily structures

Reasons why modular buildings are gaining traction

So, what are some of the factors that are making this technique of putting up structures gain so much traction nowadays?

·         Advancement in technology

There has been an upsurge in the use of digital modelling alongside new manufacturing methods like 3D printing, and these have transformed how people see things. Use of robots and CNC-controlled innovations is happening in nearly all areas of manufacturing including vehicles and furniture. The new ways are getting embraced across industries including construction where modular construction is the best application of these technologies.

·         Shortage of skilled workforce

During and after the recession period which greatly affected the construction industry, most of the skilled workforce lost jobs or switched to other areas. When the recovery period came, there was an immediate acute shortage of skilled labour as the new generations prefer other professions, hence construction lacked the needed workforce. Modular buildings, which need far less labour, became the solution.

·         The best combination for growing economies

Some of the factors which have made modular construction the way to go include improvement in technology, reduced skilled labour, high cost of skilled workforce, and shifts in the economy. The need for quick returns on investment, increased clients demands, and higher quality standards have also made this method the most viable option.

Advantages of modular buildings

Other than being economical, modular buildings are the future of construction because they are environmental-friendly. You can also consider them to enjoy their advantages, but first browse commercial buildings page to learn more about this construction method.

Some of the advantages of modular buildings include:

·         Speedy construction – Putting up structures is done quickly, saving time thanks to the removal of delays due to bad weather or unskilled workforce. Projects can be completed 30-50% quicker since site preparation and construction of modules happen simultaneously.

·         Cost-saving – The level of efficiency is high. Labour costs are greatly slashed because fewer workers are needed, material wastage due to weather elements is eliminated, and the faster completion means quicker returns on investment.

·         Less impact on the site – Due to fewer activities when delivering materials and constructing, restorative work and costs after the project completion are far less.

·         Eco-friendliness and sustainability – The highly reduced wastage of material and usage of wood (a renewable resource) are indicators of modular buildings as an eco-friendly method of construction.

Conclusion

Modular buildings are certainly the future of the construction industry because it of their high efficiency. They are eco-friendly and solve a myriad of complex problems. The end products of this construction technique are magnificent, customizable for the client, and durable. Technological improvements also support it as well as many other forces. We can only wait to see the future skyscrapers being modular buildings.
