Prevention Division Group

What Prevention Division Group does

Prevention Division Group (legal name: Groupe Pôle Prévention; operating brand: Pôle Prévention) is a French occupational risk prevention and legal protection services firm headquartered in Clichy, France, founded circa 2004 and operating for over 20 years. The company serves more than 10,000 business leaders annually across France with a distributed workforce of 150+ collaborators, addressing employers' legal obligations under Article L4121 of the French Labor Code. Its core offerings are organized around four pillars: Document Unique (DUERP) creation, update, and action planning; employee safety training (including electrical certifications, first aid/SST, ergonomics, and fire prevention) delivered through classroom, remote, and the proprietary PREVEN-BOX e-learning platform; regulatory verifications of electrical, gas, lifting, and door/gate installations; and legal protection contracts covering business, tax, and road/driving matters.

The company packages its DUERP services into three tiered formulas (Impulsion Prévention, Essentiel Prévention, and Parcours Prévention) alongside standalone services such as Bilan Pénibilité (C2P), Coaching Prévention, and security protocol development. Customer access is delivered via a sales-led motion with a single point of contact, supported by a client portal (XRP Flex by Cegid) and an appointment booking system, with services rendered in-person, remotely, or via the digital training platform.

The business model is subscription/recurring in nature, anchored by annual DUERP updates and recurring training and verification obligations. Target customers are primarily French SMEs across horizontal segments including construction (BTP), auto repair shops, medical practices, and local retail. The company differentiates on regulatory expertise built over two decades, bundled single-visit verifications, and human-led local advisory across France rather than automated tooling.
