The CEA is a large company, and therefore is required by law to provide its employees with various benefits. They are dealt with by societies (“associations”, in French) divided per type of action. All of them are listed on this page:

The societies include:
Sports clubs: many sports are represented. For some, classes are offered, for others, matches or trips are organised. In some cases members can have reduced entry rates for sport facilities close to the laboratory.
