Draft:The National Committee of the French Organization

The National Committee of the French Organization (Le Comité national de l'organisation française, CNOF) was a French professional body specializing in studying the organization of labor.

Historical

This organization was created in 1926 by the merger of the Center for Administrative Studies (C.E.A.) and the Conference for the French Organization (C.O.F.). It became the French branch of the International Committee of the Scientific Organization of Labor (C.I.O.S.T.), based in Prague.

Its first president was Charles de Fréminville (1856-1936), technical director of the Panhard factories. Beginning in1929, one of its main leaders was the engineer Jean Coutrot.

From 1938 to 1942, the Office of Elementary Times formed within the CNOF before breaking away to become an association under the law of 1901.

From 1952 to 1957, the CNOF was chaired by Count Pierre Baruzy. His son, Jacques, was the general delegate in the 1960s.

In the 1990s, the president of the CNOF was Jean Mattéoli, president of the Economic and Social Council; its secretary general was Alain Besnard. Its main activity was the professional training of business executives.

In 1997, the CNOF was bought by the IFG (L’institut Français de Gestion, French Institute of Management).

I ran across a reference to CNOF in the English article about Count Pierre Baruzy, but no explanation as to what CNOF was, thought it would be helpful to have this.
