World Water Day 2016 - Water Jobs

Every year on March 22 the world dedicates a day to the theme of water. This day is an opportunity to re-examine the many issues related to this vital resource.

This year, the United Nations decided to put the focus on water and jobs. Not only because making water drinkable and supplying it to people creates jobs, but also because the water sector generates a large number of jobs, both directly and indirectly.

To demonstrate this diversity, Veolia has chosen to introduce some of its employees whose expertise enables the Group to supply 100 million people with drinking water and offer high quality wastewater services to over 63 million people.

Standpipe operator, leak hunter, SWIM agent, commissioning engineer... all unknown yet essential jobs for an optimal water service worldwide.
