Question 12337 — professions and social activities

Summary

Ms Hélène Laporte questions the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and People with Disabilities, about her intentions regarding the systematization of the right to monthly rest for family assistants. Introduced by article 29 of law no. 2022-140 of February 7, 2022 and included in L. 423-33-1 of the social action and families code, the monthly rest right of the family assistant consists of a minimum period of one Saturday and one consecutive Sunday per month not deducted from paid leave during which he can be separated from the minors entrusted to him. This innovation was unanimously welcomed by family assistants as a contribution likely to significantly improve the conditions under which they carry out their activity. However, the granting of this right of rest is optional for the employer of the family assistant, so that the provision remains without effect in practice, the departmental councils not having implemented it. In June 2025, Ms. Catherine Vautrin, then Minister of Labor, Health and Solidarity, announced the upcoming presentation of a bill on child protection and the profession of family assistant, notably making the granting of this right of rest obligatory. Such a measure would constitute an undeniable contribution for the family assistants who, taking on an often difficult responsibility on a daily basis, play a central and indispensable role with minors covered by social services. She therefore asks her if she intends to follow up on this project announced by her predecessor, in a move to revalorize the profession of family assistant.
