The term 'plan social' in French refers to a legally mandated restructuring plan that companies must present when planning layoffs. It aims to save jobs through various means, such as retraining or voluntary departures. While the phrase may sound benign, it signals potential company distress, indicating layoffs may soon follow. Modern terminology has evolved to 'plan de sauvegarde de l'emploi,' but 'plan social' remains common. This concept emerged after the 1989 loi Soisson, making it essential for companies with over 50 employees to strategize if facing significant layoffs.
Un plan social is not a fun topic; it's a restructuring plan that companies must implement before layoffs, aimed at saving jobs while complying with legal requirements.
While known as a social plan, un plan social indicates serious trouble — a company's legal strategy to manage layoffs without immediate compulsory redundancies, warning employees of potential job losses.
