Chronos is a mid-sized staffing and recruitment firm based in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. Founded in 2001, it operates as a network of employment agencies organized as a cooperative and participative company (SCOP). In this model, employee associates hold the majority of the business, protecting their working tools and know-how; they elect their leader (one person, one vote) and participate in strategic decisions. The governance structure emphasizes human-centered values and democratic participation, reflecting a commitment to shared wealth and inclusive governance. Its profit-sharing framework allocates a third of profits to temporary workers as participation, with the remaining two-thirds shared between member-employees and the company to support jobs and regional development. This approach is described as part of a sustainable development model within the staffing sector. Chronos thus relies on a governance and profit-sharing model that aims to preserve employment and know-how across its territories.
