Sport, central to the life of the Group
Whether you take part in sports occasionally or a sports enthusiast, you will find something for you at Eiffage. Sports events, gyms, workout sessions, intercompany meetings, well-being, and prevention. We place a strong emphasis on sports, which embody values that are dear to us: discipline, self-improvement, team spirit, and friendliness.
Playing sports together
Because sports contribute to well-being and cohesion, several initiatives have been launched to enable everyone to play sports with colleagues and share more than just office relationships: sports associations (Les Furets), internal sports events (Eiffage sports challenge), gyms, teams...
Eiffage sports challenge
Eiffage’s internal sports challenge brings together the Group’s employees around sporting values. In June 2019, 350 people competed at Arles in a spirit of friendly rivalry in the various events, which included football, multi-sports, pétanque, and tennis. The regional trials for the sports challenge, which takes place every two years, attracted thousands of employees.
The "Furets d’Eiffage" club
Sport is a daily endeavour at Eiffage thanks to the Les Furets d’Eiffage club. Created in 2002 and open to all employees of the Group throughout France and from all branches, it regularly brings together running enthusiasts. It is affiliated with the French athletics federation and provides collective plans and training sessions for its 250 members.
Corporate campuses with a range of sports amenities
To help boost take-up of sports activities, some of the Group’s campuses, including Neuilly-sur-Marne and Vélizy-Villacoublay, have been equipped with sports facilities, such as fitness class, gym and well-being areas. A great deal of thought has gone into making it easier to do sport. A sports coach runs classes and can offer personalised health assessments. Other Group entities that cannot accommodate these types of facilities have set aside areas for sports sessions. Eiffage Route, for example, runs yoga classes in North-East France and kickboxing sessions at Saint-Thibéry.
Team participation
Some Eiffage employees train together in teams for major sporting events, as they did for the 2023 editions of the 10 km de l’Hexagone Wasquehal race, the Alpilles Glanum and the Soldat de la Marne trail events, among others.
Various Eiffage entities right around the globe have formed in-house teams competing every year against other businesses. Intercompany challenges are also proving increasingly popular within the Group.
Prevention is better than cure: sport and its preventative role
Sport brings undeniable benefits for businesses. For example, it can foster well-being, improve health in the workplace and also help to prevent occupational accidents. For many years now, various entities have run muscle warm-up sessions, and the 15-minute safety briefings have become a firm fixture. A comprehensive range of measures has been introduced to help everyone enjoy the benefits of sport on a daily basis. These include stretching and muscle warm-up sessions, fitness trails, team coaching, movement and posture training, active breaks, specialist interventions, body vigilance, osteopathy, occupational health services, physical conditioning, and guidance and support by elite athletes.
