Any company established outside of France that plans to send employees to France must submit a "declaration of secondment of employees" to the labor inspectorate. This declaration is sent via the Ministry of Labor's SIPSI tele-service and must be made before the employee leaves. What is SIPSI reporting? The SIPSI tele-service allows a foreign employer to send the declaration of secondment of its employees to the territorial unit of the DIRECCTE of the country where the secondment is to be made. As for the SIPSI declaration, it is a mandatory document for a seconded employee to work legally on French soil. This declaration must be sent to the labor inspectorate of the place where the service will take place. It must be sent by electronic means and must be written entirely in French. The website www.posting-of-workers.com can write it for you. This declaration is mandatory for all secondment projects and must be made before the work begins. This formality concerns all sectors of activity, but also transport companies. The project owner and the client must check that this form has been completed before accepting the posting.Before the secondment, this prior declaration must be attached to the personnel register of the company that will receive the seconded employees. If the employer has failed to submit this declaration, it is the principal who must send it within48 hours of the start of the work. The employer is also obliged to inform the posted worker about the automated processing of his personal data.
