On 30 January 2013, the fast-food network McDonald's announced the creation of 200 jobs in 2013 in its four new restaurants in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region.
The company signed an agreement with the French employment public service Pôle Emploi, to recruit 3,360 employees in 2013 as part of replacement of departing workers.
