D@ccord : Statistical database of firms collective agreements

The d@ccord NG database of company collective agreements is based on information provided in a deposit slip and in texts filed in the territorial units of the Direcctes (Regional Directorate for Business, Competition, Consumer Affairs, Labour and Employment). The administrative services of the Ministry of Labor identify and record certain characteristics of company agreements. Pursuant to Articles L.2231-5 to L.2231-7 of the French Labour Code, in order to be valid, a company collective agreement must be filed at the end of the opposition period with the Direccte of the place of signature. It must also be filed with the clerk of the industrial tribunal. The purpose of these registrations is to produce receipts which confirm the act of filing but do not in themselves validate the legality of the agreement (in particular the measures specified). The data entered per departmental service is transmitted to DARES (Directorate for Research, Studies and Statistics) every three months.
