ARS Hauts-de-France and the Fund for the Integration of Disabled People in the Civil Service (FIPHFP) have just signed a partnership agreement to promote the employment of people with disabilities within the agency.

Thanks to a budget of €253,000 (€160,000 FIPHFP and €93,700 ARS), actions already implemented within the ARS will be reinforced.

ARS Hauts-de-France is committed to achieving 3 objectives:

– Recruit and retain new agents with disabilities,

– Guarantee consistency between the policies implemented by the agency externally in favor of an inclusive society and the professional equality and integration policy implemented internally,

– Develop the participation of staff representatives, agents with disabilities and their managers in the ongoing process of improving the disability policy within the ARS.

Through this agreement, the ARS will continue its actions along the following lines:

• Communication, awareness-raising and training of all agents on how to approach disability and combat negative representations or prejudices. This area also aims to encourage agents to be better informed about their rights and to make their situation known to the employer.
• Recruitment of people with disabilities: the objective is to maintain or even increase the employment rate at the ARS, higher than the legal rate, and to develop learning through new partnerships.
• Tenure and integration: the objective is to guarantee fair treatment with the assistance of the diversity referent and to promote integration by setting up a suitable integration path
• Professional development: the diversity referent checks whether there has been any discrimination linked in particular to disability
• The objective of maintaining employment is to improve support systems when taking up a position and to reduce the time taken for the recommended adjustments.
