By supporting the APAJH Awards for the 14th year in a row, CNP Assurances reasserts its commitment to integration, tackling discrimination and helping people with disabilities to remain in employment.

At the ceremony for this year’s APAJH Awards on 3 December 2018 in Paris, CNP Assurances presented the “Socially Responsible Company” award to the Reflet restaurant in Nantes. This restaurant, seen as a friendly venue where people meet and catch up, is helping to change the way people view disabilities by employing both waiters and kitchen staff with Down syndrome. An initiative that will help them integrate into the workplace, and into society in general. After this successful experience in Nantes, a second restaurant will open in 2019 in Paris.

Every year, the APAJH Awards (created by the association pour adultes et jeunes handicapés – an association set up to support youth and adults with disabilities in France) are presented in recognition of public and private initiatives which promote the social integration of people with disabilities.

CNP Assurances has been committed to promoting diversity and non-discrimination since 1995, and so supports such socially responsible initiatives.
