Orange Shuts Marseille Site After Bullet Strikes as Staff Shift to Remote Work

Unions are demanding a permanent move for staff from the Saint-Mauront site.

Overview

  • Security staff found four bullet impacts on the Campus Orange Massalia facade and windows, with one round penetrating a meeting room at standing height.
  • Orange closed the Saint-Mauront building until further notice, directing employees to telework or use other company sites.
  • Police opened a criminal investigation, increased patrols in the area, and set up a static guard at entry and exit times.
  • The labor inspectorate ordered a psychosocial risk assessment with a short deadline before potential formal notice to the employer.
  • Union representatives are urging relocation, and Le Parisien reports Orange is seeking a new site for about 750 employees.
