"more than 600 positions"
are available to date in France.

The group, which is due to publish its 2019/20 annual results Thursday morning, indicates that it wants to
"safeguard its competitiveness"

Asked by AFP, FO (the leading trade union organization at Sodexo) recalled the group's commitment to
"use all possible solutions to preserve employment"
