5.1.3. New Hires and Departures
New Hires
Vivendi operates in certain countries where the measurement of new
hires and trainees is markedly different from that of France and other
European countries. Thus, in the United States and Brazil, summer jobs
held by students and temporary positions are considered as new hires.
To take this into account, the table below counts new hires of all kinds,
irrespective of the period of employment.

The total number of new hires remained relatively unchanged in 2014,
representing the combined effect of growth of the Canal+ Group and
the dynamic performance of GVT, which confirms the attractiveness of
Vivendi’s businesses.
Temporary and Permanent New Hires
Outside France, permanent hiring applies to persons continuously
employed within the company for 18 months or more; employees with
less than 18 months’ continuous employment are considered to be
temporary hires.
Under GVT’s internal policy, new hires are generally permanent.
