Protection of migrant workers

Plus d'un demi million de travailleurs détachés en France

Submitted by fabbri on Tue, 02/06/2018 - 09:46

Les Echos (05.02.2018) Attention donnée sensible : un peu plus de 516.000 travailleurs ont été détachés en France l'année dernière, hors transport routier, selon un bilan intermédiaire du plan national de lutte contre le travail illégal dévoilé par « Le Monde ». Outre son côté symbolique, c'est surtout l'évolution de ce chiffre qui frappe puisqu'il marque une progression de 46 % par rapport au millésime 2016, lui-même supérieur de 25 % sur l'année précédente.
