Let's Go
Onet
Onet has reaffirmed its commitment to its employees by launching "Let's Go", the Onet Group's sports scholarship, an initiative designed to support its teams' sporting projects.
This program, open to all employees with permanent contracts of more than one year, encourages participation in sporting activities that promote human and environmental values. By sharing their projects, motivations and anticipated impacts, they can benefit from financial support to realize their sporting ambitions. By supporting our employees in their sporting challenges, we reinforce our commitment to the well-being and personal fulfillment of each individual.
Out of more than 34 eligible applications, 7 Onet sportsmen and women have been identified to promote and support their project.
This initiative is in line with our core values of listening, respect and boldness. In this way, the Group contributes to the personal development of its employees and supports them in their sporting, collective and human projects.
Onet and sport,
a long history.
Following on from its partnerships with clubs, sporting events and top athletes, Onet is launching the first edition of "Let's Go", its sports grant designed to support and encourage employees' sporting projects.
It all began nearly 40 years ago, with partnerships with emblematic clubs such as Olympique de Marseille and later Olympique Lyonnais, for whom the Group provides services.
Onet also sponsors sporting events: the Open 13 over 30 years ago, the Rolex Monte Carlo Masters 15 years ago and the Mutua Madrid. The creation, in 2021, of an Event Activities Department, which coordinates Onet's services (cleaning, security, hospitality, logistics) in this area, also demonstrates the extent to which sport is at the heart of the Group's business development strategy.
Support sports projects in line with our values
Onet doesn't stop there, however, and gets involved in sports projects that are in line with the values of a company with impact, such as environmental preservation or inclusion. In 2019, skipper Fabrice Amedeo's scientific project , #OceanCalling, is the subject of a first collaboration.
As the Olympic Games approach, from 2023, Onet announces its partnerships with wheelchair tennis player Emmanuelle Mörch and swimmer Marie Wattel. The Group then joins the ranks of patrons of the Fonds Héritage Sport, supporting visually impaired judoka Prescillia Lézé and 60 m hurdler Sacha Alessandrini. At the same time, its partnership with Olympique de Marseille was extended to include support for the women's team.
Welcome to the world of Onet through the prism of sport, where action, solidarity and innovation come together to create exceptional success stories.
Olivia COX
Regional HR Manager at Onet Cleaning and Associated Services in Lyon
With nine years' experience within the group, Olivia is embarking on an ambitious project
A career dedicated to human resources Olivia Cox, as Regional HR Manager, manages human resources with a particular focus on employee needs and promoting an inclusive and caring work environment. Her role at Onet involves supporting teams in the field, helping employees with their professional development and ensuring their day-to-day well-being.
The Raid Défi d'Elles, a competition dedicated to the fight against breast cancer
This is the adventure Olivia has chosen to undertake. Having been affected by the disease herself ten years ago, Olivia sees the challenge as a victory for her new-found health, and an opportunity to raise awareness of the cause with a partner. The Raid Défi d'Elles supports the Jeune&Rose association, which fights breast cancer in France. Participants, accompanied by the association's volunteers, learn self-palpation techniques and essential preventive practices. At the end of each raid, donations are collected and directly transferred to support the association's actions.
For our colleague, this project represents much more than a sporting challenge.
It's a personal mission to raise awareness of breast cancer prevention. Taking part in the Raid enables her to develop skills such as endurance, resilience and teamwork, qualities she also applies in her role as HR Manager. We wish Olivia every success in this adventure and look forward to following her progress at the Raid Défi d'Elles 2024.
Justine ESTANISLAO
Mechanical engineering engineer and technical architect at Onet Technologies
Justine represents the duality of professional and sporting performance. Thanks to her experience at Onet and her training at INSA Strasbourg, Justine has been able to integrate the values of sport into her daily and professional life.
A commitment to Touch Rugby
In August 2023, Justine took part in the European Touch Rugby Championships in Vichy, proudly representing our Group on the international stage. This sport of speed, strategy and agility resonates with her role as a project engineer, where the ability to coordinate, anticipate and create ingenious solutions is essential.
Parallels between sport and profession
For Justine, Touch Rugby is a way of developing key skills such as team spirit, leadership and project management, skills she also applies in her day-to-day professional life. Responsible for manufacturing follow-up and coordination between ESPN Digital (a collaborative platform for all those involved in assessing compliance with French regulations on Nuclear Pressure Equipment, aimed at digitizing and simplifying regulatory certification processes) and Onet Technologies, Justine uses the lessons she learns from sport to perform in her missions.
The impact of sport on daily and professional life
Regular practice of Touch Rugby has required Justine to be rigorously organized, enabling her to manage her time efficiently between training, recovery and her professional responsibilities. This discipline has helped her adopt a healthier lifestyle and optimize her days, making her more effective in her work. Sport also offers her an escape to relieve stress, improve her mental well-being and reconnect with her goals. She emphasizes that the power of the collective, whether in sport or at work, is essential to success. Her testimony resonates with our slogan "Closer, Stronger", illustrating the importance of working together to achieve common goals. With this in mind, Onet launched the Bourse au Sport Onet to encourage its employees to pursue their sporting passions.

Rowing competitions and inclusion awareness
Barbara has chosen to take part in the 2024 and 2025 rowing competitions under the colors of Onet and the L'Avi Sourire association. Rowing is a demanding discipline that requires strength, endurance, coordination and team spirit. Its project is not limited to competition; it also aims to promote social inclusion and health and safety prevention through regular physical activity. The Avi Sourire association is a school for inclusion and integration through sport, rowing and other nautical and outdoor activities, for people with all kinds of disabilities: mental, motor, sensory and psychological.
She would like to raise awareness among Onet employees of the benefits of this sport for mental and physical health, particularly for people with disabilities, by taking part in the French Sea Rowing, Beach Rowing and Indoor Rowing Championships in 2025, with preparation courses and long-distance rowing trips. In addition, she would like to organize inclusive discovery days and team-building events for Onet employees, strengthening team cohesion and raising awareness of inclusion.
" A personal passion can be transformed into a collective mission".
Our contributor talks about how the sea shaped her childhood and how, after a much-needed break from rowing, she's ready to get back on the water. She sees this project as an opportunity to surpass herself and show that sport can be a powerful tool for changing outlooks and forging links.

Rolland TERRIN
Senior Contract Manager and Compliance Officer with Onet Technologies for over eleven yearsRolland suggests creating a "Tennis Entreprise" section within our Group.
This project fits in perfectly with our tradition of commitment to sport and the promotion of social cohesion. The French Tennis Federation (FFT) organizes the "Tennis Entreprise" competition, which brings together more than 4,000 teams across France, including well-known companies.
In 2023, committee 13 welcomed 66 Tennis Entreprises associations, with a total of 318 participants. Rolland wants Onet to join these associations by forming tennis teams made up of our employees. His project is not limited to competition; it aims to offer everyone the chance to play tennis, to reinforce social cohesion and team spirit, and to give a dynamic and healthy image of our company. What's more, this initiative will enable us to meet other economic players in the region, thus enriching our professional network.

In collaboration with Emmanuelle Mörch, a professional tennis athlete supported by Onet, we hope to promote not only sport but also an inclusive working environment. The positive impact of this project on the daily lives of our employees will be significant. By playing tennis regularly, they will be able to improve their physical fitness, develop their team spirit and strengthen their sense of belonging to the company.
