The Initiative internationale pour la REsponsabilité Sociale des CAdres (IRESCA)Web site was launched in 2005 in the wake of the signing of the Manifesto on the social responsibility of Professionals & Managers (FPH, CFDT cadres, UGICT-CGT, CJD, CJDES, ISF, École de Paris du Management). The initial goal was for managers to share their ideas as they faced their responsibilities. Since then, IRESCA has become involved in targeted initiatives such as the legal protection of whistleblowers in the professional world.
