VIDEO – On the road to Metz, the head of state has become tangled around the brushes job creation for former employees of Ecomouv

Friand flashes of humor, he was the head of state tried an April Fool ahead? That’s at least a fright whose employees Ecomouv ‘would have gone well. For over a year, their fate was tossed decision reversal, the suspension of the environmental tax to the outright cancellation of the contract between the state of their business. Last December, the crushing blow: the Italian company responsible for the collection of environmental tax that does not see the day finally announced that it will remove “all existing jobs” and therefore separate from its 220 employees. So when François Hollande revealed Friday that more than a hundred positions should be open soon in Metz to reclassify ex-Ecomouv ‘, a glimmer of hope seizes these men and women that the state had left on the floor.

The head of state announced proudly while traveling in Metz the creation of “100 to 150 jobs” located on “a platform that employment center will set up”. It details the project, to be based “on the site of Ecomouv ‘, located in the former air base 128, near Metz.” Another indication: the employer is none other than … employment center. Confident, Jean-Luc Bohl, president of the urban community of Metz, followed suit to clarify that it is the Arvato group will head the project and recruit “priority former employees of Ecomouv ”. The pellet?

For if the project was well studied, the bidding to determine which company would be responsible for driving the was not closed at this time. According to the official notice registered by the Official Bulletin of Public Procurement Contract Announcements (BOAMP), the open call for tenders published by Pôle emploi ended March 30, three days after the pomp advertisements of Head of State and the President of the urban community. What annoy competitors Arvato candidate and who cast doubt on the honesty of the procedure: Arvato, already installed in Metz, he has received any state support

?

Nay, responded employment center, asked by AFP. The president has simply confused the two public procurement: one already concluded and the other, still ongoing. The announcement of the President concerns “a document scanning center,” whose tender is actually finished and whose market was partly attributed to the company Arvato. “We consider the possibility to open the side of Metz and employees of Ecomouv ‘could position itself,” says employment center.

Another tender unrelated presidential ads concerns him another platform, phone calls this time for the Pole contact number jobs, 3949. “The call is still in progress and results will be available end of May.” No favoritism so as from left to fear the unexpected announcement of the head of state. The employees of Ecomouv ‘probably not say thank you Francois Hollande for the moment … delusion.
