Partial unemployment, announcements of closings and bankruptcy… The crisis linked to the coronavirus has hit the job market hard. If millions of workers were partially unemployed during the confinement, the recovery allowed many of them to resume their activity. But one sector is still suffering from the situation: the interim.
According to Primsemploi, which brings together temporary work companies and their agencies, the number of temporary jobs collapsed during the second half of March. The organization estimates the loss of jobs attributable to the health crisis to “557,000 full-time equivalents”. Despite the recovery, the difficulties of temporary employment could persist over time. The examples of Renault and Airbus show that the automotive and aeronautical sectors, among the largest providers of temporary employment, with construction, are struggling to recover.
But other sectors, lacking visibility on their market, could use temporary workers rather than hiring on permanent or even fixed-term contracts. Bruno Ducoudré explained it to AFP on June 5: "The level of activity seems to start again in May, this will translate fairly quickly in the interim, because the link is not broken between the temporary workers and businesses. But which sectors hire agency workers today?
