How to find the balance between economic and social performance? This vast subject is the theme of the 4th episode of Nouvelle donne.

Before getting to the heart of the matter, could you clarify what do you mean by Social Contract / Pact?

An interesting definition is: “the set of objective and subjective, implicit and explicit, individual and collective conditions that make the relationship appear mutually beneficial to the companies or organisations and the employees they employ”.

"The social pact is like the soul of the employment contract." Bruno Mettling

With the renewal of the social pact, we return to the subject of commitment that we recently discussed together and … we understand better why the subject is topical in the Covid context.
