Question 16893 — employment and activity

Summary

Ms. Mathilde Desjonquères questions the Minister of Labor, Health and Solidarity about companies in the professional events sector which are facing real recruitment difficulties. With the preparations and productions of the next major international sporting events, such as the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, companies in the professional events sector are faced with a real difficulty in recruiting. Indeed, the health crisis has accentuated the lack of available labor within this sector and although activity has gradually resumed, it intensifies as major events approach. The number of positions is therefore multiplied over a specific period. This challenge is a growing concern for companies in the sector which must already plan the means to be implemented to ensure the success of these events. Note that this difficulty is reinforced by the nature of the contracts that these companies can use today. Indeed, many sectors faced with similar particularities have access to specific legal measures, such as customary fixed-term contracts, site or operation contracts, the possibility of arranging weekly rest for establishments experiencing an additional temporary and consequent work. This allows them to ensure the functioning of their activity and to strengthen the attractiveness of their professions. Conversely, the professional events sector does not benefit from these same possibilities. However, it is a sector of activity whose needs are very vast. Without making a Prévert-style list, the MP would cite for example: security, reception, cleaning, catering, project management, audio and video services, general layout and installation, or even the design, assembly of stands, etc. These also deserve special attention. Could temporary exemptions be implemented, so that the events sector can also benefit from these tools and meet its human resources needs and ensure, at the same time, the resumption of professional events (trade shows, congresses, fairs, corporate events) highly anticipated by companies and the preparation of these major events which bring into play the image and excellence of France in terms of hosting and organizing events? In addition, this would also make it possible to open up this field of professional opportunities, in a period of strong economic activity, to people far from employment or seeking to reconvert. She asks her if she could specify what means the Government intends to implement to facilitate recruitment within the events sector in view of the Rugby World Cup and the 2024 Olympic Games.
