Cap Employment

What Cap Employment does

Cap Employment (operating as Cap emploi 16, also known as Cap emploi Charente) is a French departmental public employment service dedicated to supporting people with disabilities in finding, returning to, and retaining employment. Founded in 1992 and headquartered at 112 rue d'Angoulême, 16400 Puymoyen, France, the organization operates as a non-profit association (Ohé Prométhée Charente, under French law 1901) within the French public employment service framework, co-piloted by the Ministry of Labour, AGEFIPH, FIPHFP, and France Travail, and coordinated nationally by Cheops National. It serves two primary constituencies in the Charente department: people with recognized disabilities (RQTH) seeking professional integration, and employers seeking inclusive recruitment and retention support. In 2025, the organization supported 1,620 individuals across professional projects, return-to-employment, retention, and career path securitization programs, served 685 employer relationships, and delivered digital literacy support to 350 beneficiaries through its Digital Advisor (Conseiller Numérique) service.

The organization's service portfolio comprises a public-facing web platform (capemploi-16.com) offering a Candidate Space (job listings, CV deposit, Mini CV service) and an Employer Space (vacancy posting, CV consultation), alongside in-person advisory consultations at its Puymoyen headquarters and mobile outreach (Truck de l'Emploi) to rural Charente communities. The core technology stack is built on Cheops National IT infrastructure, uses MATOMO for audience measurement, and integrates the Acceo multi-support accessibility solution for transcription and French Sign Language support for deaf and hard-of-hearing users. Beyond placement services, the organization operates a Centre de Ressources that convenes employer sensitization workshops, partner training, and assistive technology demonstrations (with partners such as AZERGO, Mousetrapper, Phonak, Auptinov, Association Valentin Haüy), plus several device programs including Cap Inclusion, the HandiWe employer label, DIXIT, and the Club Les Entreprises s'Engagent. Events and discovery programs (DuoDay, Open Factories Days, Transport and Logistics Week visits) anchor employer engagement, and a Padlet collaborative platform disseminates news, tools, and resources.

Cap emploi 16 generates no commercial revenue: all services to job seekers and employers are free of charge, funded instead through French public institutional mechanisms (Ministry of Labour, AGEFIPH, FIPHFP, France Travail). The organization sits at a stable node in a dense local ecosystem including France Travail, Mission Locale Arc Charente, MSA Charente, Cheops National, and a portfolio of named employer partners spanning retail (E.Leclerc), agriculture and viticulture (Distillerie Piron, Océalia Group, SAS Les Fermes de Chassagne), industrial manufacturing (SAFT), and transport (Cars Thorin Vriet). It is RGPD/GDPR compliant as joint Data Controller with Cheops National and holds no patents, with HandiWe functioning as a sector-specific inclusion label rather than registered IP.
