Employment

Kety, Douaa, Hadda, Hamza, Maxime and Arthur never imagined that they would be able to benefit from a coach and personalised advice to adapt their outfit to the expectations of recruiters and company codes. This was without counting on the mobilisation of Olivia, Faustine, Pauline, Victoire, Julie, Sylvie, Stéphanie, Valentine and Émilie. These nine Kiabers led a fashion coaching workshop on 24 March in Villeneuve d'Ascq (Nord) after being approached by Grégory, KIABI's customer services and contacts director and sponsor of an ARELI winner.

Through the "Diversity Talk" action, the KIABI Italy team wanted to contribute to equal opportunities for all people, regardless of their gender, age, ethnic origin, sexual orientation or physical abilities, by allowing everyone to be themselves and express their talents and personality.

Kiabi Life is continuing to roll out its "Petit Magasin" concept to promote the employability of people on the path to integration. Seven shops will open in France in 2022, as well as a first shop in Spain.

The stakeholders of the Petit Magasin met on 23 November at the Souffle du Nord premises in Marcq-en-Barœul for a day of exchange and reflection.

In addition to hosting a solidarity grocery shop offering textiles, food products, the Petit Magasin is also a place for living and sharing, and a generator of jobs.

The Fondation Agir Contre l'Exclusion (FACE) is offering jobseekers the opportunity to take part in coaching workshops as part of its "Atout FACE" scheme.

Kiabi is committed to building a society and a future where everyone can find their place, whether it be with its customers, partners or employees.

Offering everyone the opportunity to buy clothes and fashion accessories at low prices by helping the long-term unemployed return to work is the project of Les Trouvailles de Marlène, a solidarity shop run by the Ferme des Vanneaux in Roost-Warendin in the Hauts-de-France, with the support of La Sauvegarde du Nord.
