In a report submitted Wednesday to Nicolas Sarkozy, former Minister of Solidarity Marc-Philippe Daubresse proposes to employ the beneficiaries of the RSA one day a week, paid at minimum wage. The activities concerned will have to be socially useful and cover needs that are not, such as DIY, waste collection, maintenance of heritage, home services, etc..Only persons "capable of work" would be affected (a third of the beneficiaries of RSA base). Any refusal would be punished. This report hopes to defuse the controversy launched in the spring by some members of the majority and the Minister Laurent Wauquiez, who had proposed to work for free RSA recipients. These proposals are in the right direction but remain largely inadequate, says Matthew Angotti, Director General of the Federation of Associations of insertion (Fnars). Interview.

What do you think of the proposal to employ the beneficiaries of the RSA for pay?

Compared to the proposed Laurent Wauquiez, there are two positive developments. First, we return in the labor law, contract with a single insertion (CUI) that already exists and it is not free but paid work at minimum wage.Then, targets only those capable of work, allowing social workers in the field to decide the conditions to be met.

Is it a positive step for the return to work?

No. This is not working 7 hours per week in odd jobs such crafts as one leaves lasting insecurity. There is even a big risk to keep the beneficiaries in a precarious state. This should not be the lasting solution but a starting point of a trajectory employability, including the following steps would be to get these people to vocational training and coaching increased to find a job. However, the report says nothing about Daubresse training and support. As it stands, this is like a manipulation to lower unemployment figures.

The report suggests Daubresse to strengthen sanctions for refusal of beneficiaries to work. Is it necessary?

It's communication. How pathetic to suggest that the unemployed will not work. Above all, it makes no difference: recipients of the RSA are already obliged to accept job offers or assisted contracts offered to them, or risk seeing their benefits reduced or eliminated. The problem is that offers them nothing.

In addition to training and support, are there other gaps in this report?

Yes, two major. The first concerns the RSA youth. Currently, the access conditions for the RSA under 25 are too restrictive. This leaves thousands of young people in a very precarious.The second is the level of RSA: consider that in France you can live with 450 euros a month is ridiculous! Of course, in times of austerity, I'm not asking that the amount be doubled, but it would still fund a reflection on what we consider to be the minimum decent standard of living.
