Question 14009 — work

Summary

Ms. Cyrielle Chatelain draws the attention of the Minister of Labor and Solidarity to the situations of social precariousness of employees employed under intermittent micro-contracts in the communication, advertising, merchandising and events sectors. Many people involved in commercial events, promotional operations or merchandising actions in supermarkets are employed via a succession of very short contracts: temporary contracts, temporary permanent contracts, fixed-term contracts, fixed-term contracts (CDDU) or service provision contracts. These employees thus carry out missions of a few hours or a few days, for multiple employers, without contractual continuity, despite regular professional activity. This extreme fragmentation of employment has social consequences major. In the event of sick leave, the current rules for calculating daily allowances frequently result in refusals of coverage or in derisory amounts, due to periods of affiliation that are too short or discontinuous, even though the people concerned are contributing. Difficulties are also significant in terms of access to specific temporary work arrangements, such as those provided by the FASTT, due to failure to reach the required hourly thresholds. Furthermore, many employers do not systematically transmit end-of-contract documents for micro-missions, further complicating the opening of social rights and procedures with the competent organizations. The discontinuity of contracts also leads to frequent interruptions of supplementary health coverage. These practices also call into question the effectiveness of controls. The services of URSSAF and the labor inspectorate face structural difficulties in traceability of these forms of employment, due to the multiplicity of contracts, intermediaries and principals, limiting the detection of breaches of social obligations, particularly in terms of declaration, transmission of contract ends and legal qualification of employment relationships. In this context, she wishes to know what measures the Government intends to take to: · adapt the rules for opening and calculating social rights, particularly in terms of daily allowances, to the realities of discontinuous and fragmented work; enforce the law concerning employers' obligations regarding the transmission of end-of-contract documents, including for very short missions, as well as related controls and sanctions; strengthen the means and the control tools of URSSAF and the Labor Inspectorate in order to ensure effective traceability of these forms of employment and to combat practices that circumvent labor law; make ordering companies, in particular major brands and brands, responsible for the employment conditions of employees working on their behalf; and guarantee effective continuity of social rights for employees who work regularly but today remain insufficiently protected by labor and social security law.
