TOTAL S.A.
-- Total's Marketing France Division presented its organizational
adjustment plan to the Central Works Committee on Thursday, October 4,
2007.
-- The plan does not call for any dismissals.
Total's Marketing France Division* announced today that it is having to adjust
its organisation in response to a more challenging business environment and to
the market decline in volumes and margins.
To reduce fixed costs, increase efficiency and maintain the quality of customer
service, the Marketing France Division plans to streamline its headquarters
organisation and consolidate its regional operations on three sites in Nanterre,
Nantes and Lyon. The plan will eliminate 177 jobs and create 22 others. It
includes the transfer of the Marseille operations to Lyon. It does not call for
any dismissals.
At the same time, the Marketing France Division has initiated an action program
to reduce its other operating costs and increase non-petroleum product sales in
its service stations (convenience stores, carwash, etc.)
*The Marketing France Division employs 1,500 people in the marketing and
administrative departments that supervise the sale of Total petroleum products
in France. It does not include Total service station employees.
