East Val d'Oise Job Centre (MEEVO)
On March 16 2007, the MEEVO's founder members (the district communities of Roissy Porte de France and Pays de France and the towns of Gonesse and Goussainville, the ANPE, Assedic, and public bodies represented by the Val d'Oise Department of Employment and Professional Training) and partners met at the headquarters of Roissy Porte de France for the founding General Meeting. The by-laws were adopted unanimously and the 7 members of the Executive Committee were elected.
"Maisons de l'Emploi" job centres have been set up as part of the Social Cohesion Plan, bringing together public employment services (the state, the ANPE and the Assedic), local authorities and a wide range of partner organisations such as the AFPA professional training body, local employment missions, PAIOs (jobseekers' surgeries) and agencies for economic development and employment integration.
Located in employment basins, the missions of Maisons de l'Emploi are to anticipate companies' labour and training requirements, facilitate access and return to work, and support job creation and business startups.
Faced with significant issues in terms of the creation of businesses and jobs, the district communities of Roissy Porte de France and Pays de France and the towns of Gonesse and Goussainville decided to set up a Maison de l'Emploi for an employment basin defined as the catchment area of the Assedic and the ANPE, enabling the creation of a fresh partnership dynamic and opening up an avenue of added value for the whole of the area around the Roissy - Charles de Gaulle airport hub.
The project as a whole was defined with priority given to the following value-adding principles
-
Making the user the central focus of the Maison de l'Emploi's project
-
Providing a 'seamless' offer of service for all types of user
-
Acting to provide a genuinely local offer of service
