Description
Verisur, the European leader in connected alarms, has announced the opening of the largest remote monitoring centre in France. In the next six years, the company promises to create 500 jobs: 250 jobs within three years and 500 in total by 2024, on permanent employment contracts (full-time and part-time). Verisur currently has 15,000 employees in 14 countries for a turnover of €204 million. The remote monitoring centre will be open on 1 January 2019. The Pays de la Loire region has granted a grant of € 200,000 to encourage Verisur to set up its new centre in Angers. This area also benefits from a system of public support for hiring (€ 15,000 per job over three years) companies that hire residents from distressed neighborhoods.
