Europcar enhances its flexibility by launching a virtual portal for employees
Europcar, the European leader in car rental, is launching a remote access portal for its employees. The portal allows all authorized users to gain access to the Europcar management network from any public or private computer with an Internet connection, while maintaining an ultra-secure connection. This new tool offers new perspectives and enhances flexibility for Europcar employees, since they can access all of their applications, regardless of their business activity or geographical location.
Thanks to this new portal, Europcar employees can work from home or when they are away on business. They gain access to their e-mails and calendars, as well as to the Europcar management system.
Thanks to this innovative tool, Europcar is enhancing business continuity in every situation and communications among its internal departments and with its external partners.

About Europcar
Europcar is the European leader in passenger car and light utility vehicle rentals. The company serves business and leisure customers throughout Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Latin America and Asia-Pacific. Excluding franchise operations, in 2009 Europcar signed 9.5 million rental contracts, with 7,000 employees and a fleet exceeding 190,000 vehicles. In September 2008, Europcar and U.S. market leader Enterprise Holdings joined forces in a strategic commercial alliance to form the world’s largest car rental network, with more than 1.2 million vehicles and 13,000 locations around the world. Europcar is owned by the French investment company Eurazeo.
Europcar is the European market leader and is also leading in its environmental approach to car rental. It opened its first “environmental agency” in Paris in 1999, and in 2008 it was the first company in Europe to have its “Environmental Charter” – which formalizes its commitments in favor of sustainable development -- certified by Bureau Veritas.
