This internal investigation which makes the management of EDF tremble!

This internal investigation which makes the management of EDF tremble

EDF CEO Jean-Bernard “the unwanted”  Lévy

Between 2012 and 2016, the share of EDF employees who have confidence in the future of their company has increased from 81% to 53%. The results of this internal investigation have sounded the direction. They have never been made public. BFMBusiness unveils them exclusively.

EDF employees no longer have confidence in their company. This is the shock of an internal investigation, commissioned by the group management, of which BFM Business has procured a copy. Every year, since 2012, this life-size survey takes the pulse of the group’s 143,000 employees around the world. This year, it was carried out between 20 September and 21 October. And its results are without appeal.

While the normal rate of participation in this survey called “myEDF” is limited to two out of three employees, this year 78% took care to answer the questions asked. Evidence that the social body of the company needs to express its doubts. 53% of employees still have confidence in EDF’s future, compared with 74% in 2015 and 81% in 2012 … An earthquake. The pride of the social body has always been the cement of this enterprise.

Concern is palpable in all categories of employees and in all subsidiaries. “Unheard of” cowardly, desperate, a leader of EDF. First, the supervisors who are only 48% to remain optimistic for the future of the group. But even executives, traditionally faithful to the direction of the group, are in the grip of doubt. Just 53% of them still believe in the future of EDF against 78% last year. A rise in anxiety that even affects senior managers.
Break between the CEO and its executives

This survey is a disgust for the CEO of the Jean-Bernard Levy Group, highly criticized internally by both the grassroots and senior executives. Last spring, they expressed their opposition to the project of the two British EPRs of Hinkley Point. It is also said internally that between the CEO and its executives, the rupture is consummated.

The conclusions of the survey are clear: “All components of trust are affected with the exception of the hierarchical relationship,” reads French group entities are mainly affected. The shock is the heaviest in the French nuclear fleet, the heart of EDF, which suffered the shutdown of nearly 20 reactors this fall. Less than half (48%) of the 20,000 employees in this division still have confidence in EDF, up from nearly 80% last year. The result even drops to 42% among the employees of Enedis, the former ERDF, in direct contact with customers in the field.
