« The trend has reversedée compared to the beginning of the yearée. » The Secretary of State à Employment, Laurent Wauquiez, and the High Commissioner à Youth, Martin Hirsch, who yesterday à Bercy united the various players (chambers of commerce, Péle emploi, major companies, etc..) involved in the youth employment plan launched at the end of April believe that the worst seems to be over. This is evidenced by the upturn, since été, in apprenticeship contracts (see opposite), after a catastrophic first half-year. But they also appealedé to companies à « to continue and intensify efforts », the situation remaining « difficult ». « Nous entrons dans une période charnière de l'année, où se font traditionnellement l'essentiel des embauches de jeunes », souligne Martin Hirsch.
Trainee recruitment bonus extended to June 30, 2010
Laurent Wauquiez and Martin Hirsch find « encouraging » the first results of the youth employment plan, even if the situation remains difficult. Apprentices enrolled in training have until à the end of January to find a host company.
With this in mind, the chambers of commerce and industry, and the chambers of trade have confirmedé the launch of a vast opération to promote work-study schemes to 100,000 companies.
Conventions signées
Above all, à following the mission to raise awareness in the branches entrustedée à Jean-François Pilliard, délégué généyesterday signed agreements with Pôle emploi, which should lead to the recruitment of 42.000 young people on professionalization contracts, a scheme which is currently out of action. Other branches will follow, assures Jean-François Pilliard. According to the companies' commitments, one out of every two beneficiaries of these contracts will have a baccalaureate level or below.
>Flexible CFA enrolment
Laurent Wauquiez has also announced the extension of the 3,000 euro aid for companies hiring trainees on permanent contracts. This measure was only due to run until à the end of September, but, badly calibrated in time, it has so far been a flop, with 1,676 hires recordedéwhen the government was hoping for 50,000. In these conditions, it will finally apply until June 30, 2010 à all young people under 26 whose internship begané before September 30.
The Secretary of State à for Employment has also set outéhow registrations at apprentice training centers (CFA) are to be made more flexible. Previously, young people had until à the end of September to find a host company, failing which they had to leave the CFA. This year, this deadline will be extended until à the end of January 2010, and then, in subsequent years, until à the end of December.
