Employees
Ortec value
All the value Ortec generates for industries is based on the skills and expertise of employees, their knowledge of a particular industrial setting, an environment, operational expertise, etc. There are so many areas, such varied assignments, and so many different contexts: it is important to remember the right actions, the right processes. It is important always to be able to keep an eye on excellence, to recognise it and to use it whenever our customers request it. That’s why the Casques d’Or were created. Experts in their professions, models for the teams, examples of professional success too, these talented men and women are a reference point, a memory and a means of passing on knowledge, as much for technical knowledge as the taste for the job well done, service focus, team spirit, etc.

« Being elected Casque d’Or is always a bit surprising! But it recognises that you have mastered your job and that you are uncompromising on safety. It also shows that we put People first, that mutual help, respect and excellence are the foundation of Ortec. »

Works operator at the Ortec Environnement Nantes branch office for 30 years, Casque d’Or since 2016

« Recognition is very important. Even before being distinguished, I was training youngsters, one of whom has become a Casque d’Or: this proves the importance of passing on knowledge in Ortec. It's a family: our role is also to look after those joining the company, to help them adopt the company's values. »
