Champagne sector hosts employment fair in Épernay amid recruitment difficulties

Very recently at a general meeting at the Millesium in Épernay, the Champagne winegrowers reported their difficulties in recruiting, especially at harvest time. The General Union of Winegrowers (SGV) has thus estimated a lack of staff at 10% of the needs of the sector during the last harvest. But it is also throughout the rest of the year that the champagne sector is faced with recruitment problems. This is why the Maison de l’emploi et des métiers d’Épernay, in partnership with Pôle emploi and the Local Mission, approached the SGV and the Union of Champagne Houses (UMC) to find out their needs in terms of manpower in order to organize a meeting devoted to employment. This Wednesday, May 3, from 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., at the Palais des Fêtes in Épernay, around thirty companies from the Sparnacian and Reims basins will be present to offer more than fifty offers in permanent contracts, fixed-term contracts, seasonal employment, internships and work-study and apprenticeship contract. Satisfactory, for a first. “The idea is to break the codes of traditional maintenance thanks to a friendly and warm time, explains Églantine Chollet, director of the Maison de l’emploi et des métiers in Épernay. It will also allow the public to meet houses and winegrowers that they would probably not have had the opportunity to meet in normal times. »
