Question 43589 — foreigners

Summary

Ms. Isabelle Santiago alerts the Minister of Labor, Employment and Integration to the worrying situation of undocumented employees of the Chronopost agency in Alfortville. The latter have been demanding for months their regularization as well as the improvement of their working conditions, or even the renewal of their employment contract which was suddenly interrupted following the strike movements. Neither Derichebourg - the subcontractor - nor the company interim, neither La Poste nor Chronopost have yet clearly explained their responsibility. Despite numerous alerts in recent years, despite the intervention of the prefecture, such illegal practices continue. Needless to say, Chronopost is a subsidiary of La Poste, which is none other than a company with public capital held by the State, the hierarchical link linking all these companies is thus likely to indirectly engage the responsibility of the State, or at least highlight its indirect involvement in these facts. This case not being the first, it is time for the La Poste group and the public authorities to speak out and provide an effective, appropriate and proportionate solution. This lack of response calls into question the political will to respect the dignity and integrity of migrants and refugees and to fully integrate them into French society. A response is all the more necessary as the facts are particularly serious. This is not just illegal work but also a violation of fundamental rights recognized by the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights. Thus, if the parent company and its subsidiary show reprehensible levity in the handling of this matter, even though their criminal liability could be incurred due to illegal work and human trafficking, it seems more than necessary for the State to take up the subject. In addition, these various offenses, if they are committed, cause several damages that deserve compensation, both for illegally employed workers and for other companies in the sector. The situation of these employees therefore remains very worrying. She asks him what response he intends to give in the name of human rights and the dignity of these people.
