Elcia, a HappyAtWork company for the 6th time, unveils its magic formula

Since 2017, the first year as a HappyAtWork company, ELCIA has more than doubled its workforce from 70 employees to more than 150 today. Growth that in no way hinders the good results of this survey, quite the contrary: a company recommendation rate of 90.2% and an overall satisfaction score of 4.45/5 (against 83.3% and 4.43/5 respectively). in 2017).

This satisfaction maintained and above all increased over time is due to the fact that ELCIA “has always placed well-being at work at the heart of its concerns” says Stéphanie ROBIN, Human Resources Director of ELCIA Groupe.

This year, moreover, Stéphanie and Roxane OLAGNIER (HR Development Officer) explain that they want to go even further, by making QVCT (Quality of life and working conditions) one of the three major axes of their HR strategy. .

Here are 4 questions to Stéphanie ROBIN and Roxane OLAGNIER to better understand the subject

What does it mean to add the QVCT aspect to the heart of ELCIA's HR strategy?

“For a company with a constantly growing workforce to maintain its attractiveness and well-being at work, the first thing to do is to properly structure the team in charge of this mission. This is why, like our overall workforce, the Human Resources Department has grown by 100% over the same period. Whether it is by listening and being close to our employees, by developing skills development or by offering an ever more ideal work environment, the areas of action to be taken into account to integrate the QVCT dimension into our strategy are multiple. »

A strategic part well understood, but what are the concrete actions put in place?

“One of ELCIA's strengths is that we don't just collect information. Behind, the means are given to us to develop concrete actions because well-being at work is in the DNA of the company. » says Roxane OLAGNIER.

Stéphanie ROBIN goes on to explain “We have always made sure to provide the most appropriate solutions to our employees, in a reactive and proactive manner. We can cite the implementation of flexible working hours, which has been extremely well received, or our "Work From Anywhere" program since the beginning of the year, allowing all members of the ELCIA Group to have 2 full weeks telework everywhere in France. And on the other hand, the possibility of working in full remote from another country under certain conditions. This is for example the case of Camille, our International Customer Project Manager, who left for Germany as a seconded employee for a period of 6 months. »

ELCIA's successes already in place

• Increased middle management
• Possibility of full remote for developers
• Highly developed internal mobility policy (more than 20 changes & promotions this year)
• New premises designed as a place to live
• Seminars and teambuilding
• Parenting support
• Disability policy at Group level

With all this, do you feel a noticeable difference on your collaborators?

" Absolutely ! At ELCIA, the average seniority of our employees is 6 years, which reflects a great loyalty showing that it is good to live here. When the workforce of a company increases, maintaining good overall satisfaction becomes more challenging due to the diversification of expectations. However, this sixth year of HappyAtWork labeling with results that are still just as good demonstrates that our actions have a positive impact on our employees. And that is our satisfaction. ".

Finally, what would you say to a candidate in front of you?

“For future candidates who will read these lines, if they are looking for a company that is environmentally committed, where they can innovate and develop their skills in a flexible and caring environment, it is with us that they should apply! We are always looking for new talents, beginners as well as experienced, to evolve and progress together! concludes Stéphanie ROBIN.
