The second round of elections of staff representatives on the Orange Group's Board of Directors was held on 12-15 Nov 2013. A second round was held as none of the management-level candidates had obtained an absolute majority during the first round on 17-22 Oct 2013.
A total of 49,687 voters from Orange in France were invited to elect a board member to represent members of management staff on the Board of Directors for a four-year term.
The overall turnout in the management category was 55.7%, compared to 52.8% during the first round of the elections, showing a clear increase in the participation rate between the two rounds. The participation rate was also higher than in the second round of elections held in 2009.
