Question 33086 — employment and activity

Summary

Mr. Didier Martin draws the attention of the Minister of Labor, Employment and Integration to the situation of temporary workers on extra contracts in catering and events. Hit hard by the total cessation of their activity, these professionals are currently experiencing significant difficulties. Often at the end of their unemployment rights, sometimes having recourse to active solidarity income (RSA), they struggle to make ends meet. month and to honor their commitments (rent, etc.). This situation is explained by the nature of the contract linking them to their employers. Using fixed-term contracts (CDDU), they are hired to carry out a specific and temporary task, which can last from a few hours to a few days. They thus alternate periods of unemployment and employment. Not having an employment contract during periods of inactivity, they are excluded from the partial activity scheme and can only claim unemployment rights. Dependent on the general unemployment insurance system since 2014 (previously subject to Annex IV), their conditions for granting unemployment rights are strict. Without activity since February 2020, it is impossible for them to recharge them, so some have already exhausted the accumulated rights. To overcome this difficulty, some propose that a “white year” with an extension of their unemployment rights be granted to them, as was the case in July 2020 for intermittent workers in the entertainment industry, who saw their compensation rights extended until the end of August 2021. The creation of a status specific to the profession, such as the old status of “intermittent temporary worker in the catering industry”, based on the model of the intermittent worker status in the entertainment industry, is also mentioned. Aware of the significant difficulties encountered by these professionals, he would like to know the measures that the Government is considering in order to provide them with support and ultimately maintain the skills of the sector.
