Aid for hiring people on fixed-term contracts in the entertainment industry
Majoration temporaire de l’aide à l’embauche en CDD dans le spectacle
Background information
In order to support the reopening of cultural venues, Decree No. 2021-1066 of 9 August 2021 increased the scale of aid for hiring intermittent entertainment workers on fixed-term contracts for contracts starting between 1 July 2021 and 31 December 2021 (aid instituted by D. No. 2019-1011 of 1 October 2019, art. 3, JO 2 October). A new decree of 5 April 2022 extends the application of this increased scale until 31 July 2022.
Content of measure
The monthly amount of aid (prorated for part-time work) is thus maintained at:
-
€466 for a contract of at least one month and less than four months
-
€566 for a contract of at least four months and less than eight months
-
€666 per month if the duration is greater or equal to eight months.
In addition, the benefit of this aid is exceptionally extended to employees on split contracts based on the sum of the duration of the different contracts. It is therefore granted to employers who undertake, by means of a framework contract, to conclude several discontinuous employment contracts with an employee over a period of 12 months, provided that the performance of the first contract began between 1 July 2021 and 31 July 2022.
The aid is also open to the hiring of employees paid "by the hour" when the date of performance of the first fee occurs between 1 July 2021 and 31 July 2022 and if the gross fee is less than 30x the gross minimum wage per hour. The amount is then:
-
€21.18 per fee when the contract provides for 22 to less than 44 fees
-
€25.73 per fee when the contract provides for 44 to less than 70 fees
-
€30.27 per fee from 70 fees onwards
