MEDEF and elected representatives visit the Velfor group

This Friday, September 14, 2018, members of MEDEF Haute-Loire and local elected officials took part in an open day at the Group’s 3 subsidiaries located in Saint-Pal-de-Chalencon.

After a warm welcome, tours of the three sites were conducted in small groups. They presented the new facilities at each of the three entities, in particular the extension for raw materials storage and the reorganization of flows at Velfor Emballage, the new Twin Sheet machine at Velfor Industrie, and the building extension at Velfor Conditionnement. MEDEF members and elected representatives were also able to discover or rediscover our integrated machining center and all its latest features, such as the new DMF 180 5-axis machining center.

These visits enabled all participants to appreciate the breadth of our techniques and know-how, as well as to discover the new strategic directions the Group is taking. Indeed, the Group’s new strategic objective is to strengthen its presence in the healthcare sector, where Velfor has been present for over 30 years. This means offering a more diversified range of solutions. The Group is also committed to providing an appropriate response to cleanliness requirements, notably through the production of packaging items in ISO 7 and ISO 8 cleanrooms. The extension of the Velfor Conditionnement site is part of this strategy, and will ultimately enable the company to significantly increase its presence in the healthcare market.

The Gender Equality Index was established by the Law on the Freedom to Choose One’s Career Future. It is a tool designed to calculate the pay gap between men and women.
This index allows companies to assess the level of gender equality out of 100 points. It is calculated based on the following criteria:

  • Gap in pay between women and men
  • Gap in individual pay raise rates
  • Number of female employees receiving raises following maternity leave
  • Parity among the 10 highest paid employees
  • Gap in promotion rates

The VELFOR Group has calculated its Gender Equality Index. For 2024, it stands at 92/100:

  • Pay gap indicator: 37 points out of 40
  • Individual pay increase rate gap indicator: 35 out of 35
  • Return from maternity leave indicator: 15 out of 15
  • High pay indicator: 5 out of 10
