Lyon engineering centre & Le Creusot forge
9 published dossiers, the newest dated 2026-10-17: inside our 540-day currency window. 3 further dossiers mention it in passing; we do not count a mention as coverage.
The French nuclear new-build programme is engineered largely from Lyon and forged at Le Creusot, and it is hiring against a demographic cliff. Readers need the qualification path into a regulated industry that cannot shortcut training.

Arkema
Pierre-Bénite platform, Rhône
7 published dossiers, the newest dated 2026-10-12: inside our 540-day currency window.

7 published dossiers, the newest dated 2026-10-11: inside our 540-day currency window. 1 further dossier mentions it in passing; we do not count a mention as coverage.
A century-old materials employer reinventing itself is the clearest regional test of whether reskilling programmes are real. Readers need what Michelin now hires for, and what it no longer does.

Aledia
Champagnier microLED fab, Grenoble Métropole
3 published dossiers, the newest dated 2026-09-04: inside our 540-day currency window.
A venture-funded display start-up built a 300 mm fab in the metropole, which is rare enough to be evidence rather than an example. Readers need the truth about scale-up hiring: which epitaxy, process and yield skills survive a ramp and which do not.

How this page is counted
Each anchor is an employer at a named site, written down in advance with the search terms that identify it. A database function counts published dossiers matching those terms, over title, standfirst and body, and returns the newest date. An anchor reads as documented only when its newest dossier is inside our 540-day currency window. If the count fails, every anchor reads as not measured: never as covered.
