See job offersTemporary workers face unique challenges in their professional and personal lives. As temporary employees, they may encounter difficulties related to access to stable housing, healthcare, mobility, or even managing their finances. Fortunately, several social and financial aid schemes are specifically designed to support them in these areas. These aids, often offered by temporary employment agencies and social partners, provide personalized support to address the common difficulties faced by temporary workers. In this article, we will explore the main available aids, from housing assistance to health coverage, as well as support services for finding accommodation and financial aid.
FASTT assistance for your housing
Temporary workers often face difficulties accessing stable housing, particularly due to the temporary nature of their contracts. To help them, several schemes exist, including the FASTT Confiance Bailleur program, which offers a free rent guarantee for the first three years of the lease, thus facilitating access to housing for temporary workers. This program reassures landlords and helps avoid the risk of unpaid rent. To benefit, individuals must meet eligibility criteria, including the stability of their income over the past 12 months.
The FASTT SOS Logement en déplacement service offers a quick solution for workers on assignment, allowing them to find suitable temporary accommodation within 48 hours. This service offers various types of housing, ranging from hotels to furnished apartments, depending on the length of the assignment. The procedures are simple, and the temporary worker benefits from accommodation at no additional cost, with expenses covered by the temporary employment agency or the social action fund for temporary work.
Finally, the Mon Espace Logement platform provides temporary workers with practical tools such as the Locamètre and the Cote des Loyers, facilitating the search for housing by providing information on average rents and market prices. Through this platform, they can access practical advice and use tools tailored to their housing search.
Financial and social assistance for temporary workers
FASTT, in collaboration with social partners and temporary employment agencies like Staffmatch, offers financial solutions tailored to the specific needs of employees on temporary contracts. These schemes are designed to help overcome unforeseen events, finance personal projects, or facilitate access to professional opportunities, especially when mobility is a key factor.
Among the solutions offered, microcredit is particularly useful. Accessible to workers who cannot obtain traditional bank loans, it allows them to finance important projects such as the purchase of a vehicle or to cover unexpected expenses, such as those related to a work accident. The procedures, simplified thanks to FASTT and the support of temporary employment agencies, include the presentation of the necessary supporting documents, such as an employment contract or a project estimate.
The Atout Permis program is another concrete example of the financial support offered. This scheme helps finance obtaining a driver's license, an essential asset for many assignments involving regular travel. In addition to partial coverage of costs, FASTT supports the employee throughout the administrative procedures and driving training, thus ensuring easier access to this essential tool for their professional life.
Health insurance and welfare benefits for temporary workers
FASTT plays a vital role in helping temporary workers benefit from health and welfare assistance. Due to the precarious nature of temporary contracts, it can be difficult to maintain stable social coverage. Thanks to FASTT's participation, employees can access specific schemes tailored to their needs, offering comprehensive protection against the unforeseen events of professional and personal life.
Tailored health coverage and welfare benefits
With FASTT's participation, temporary workers can benefit from schemes designed to cover essential medical expenses. These schemes help cover consultations, dental and optical care, as well as hospitalization costs. By facilitating access to these solutions, the Temporary Work Social Action Fund helps you secure your health while reducing the financial impact.
In addition, FASTT offers personalized support to guide temporary workers towards the guarantees that best suit their situation. This assistance simplifies administrative procedures and allows temporary employees to focus on their well-being.
What are the benefits with FASTT's participation?
Thanks to FASTT, health schemes include accessible options at advantageous rates. These solutions allow you to benefit from assistance for routine or specialized care without straining the budgets of temporary workers. In addition, extended guarantees cover benefits such as daily allowances in case of hospitalization or reimbursements for care not covered by social security.
FASTT also offers health check-ups and preventive services, strengthening employee protection while providing them with peace of mind in the face of unforeseen events.
Why choose FASTT's schemes?
The welfare schemes supported by FASTT are essential for maintaining financial stability in the event of work stoppage. In case of illness or accident, they guarantee daily allowances to compensate for loss of salary.
Beyond financial guarantees, FASTT offers tailored services, such as medical check-ups or psychological support, to assist temporary workers at all stages of their journey. These schemes, specifically designed for temporary workers, allow them to secure their future while meeting their immediate needs.
Mobility and childcare assistance for temporary workers
Employees on temporary contracts face challenges related to frequent travel or family management, especially with sometimes atypical schedules. To support them, dedicated schemes simplify professional travel while offering adapted childcare solutions.
For assignments requiring long-distance travel, specific coverage covers transportation costs or facilitates vehicle rental. These measures are particularly valuable in areas where public transport is scarce or inaccessible. To benefit, simply contact your temporary employment agency, which will verify eligibility criteria and assist with the procedures.
For families, flexible and adapted solutions ensure childcare. Crèches, registered childminders, or daycare centers offering extended hours provide valuable support. Part of the costs can also be reduced thanks to financial schemes, accessible upon presentation of the required supporting documents to the agency or a partner social organization.
These initiatives allow employees to focus on their work with peace of mind, while ensuring an essential family balance.
