Job security in France is a whole new level. I'm an American expat living near Paris. A while ago, a French colleague of mine had a nervous breakdown at work. I don't know what triggered it, I just know he had just finished a phone call and suddenly he was yelling and tossing stuff. He smashed his computer and put several dents into his desk. As an American, I was thinking the guy was going to get fired on the spot. Instead, a doctor gave him a four week break paid by the French healthcare system and none of my French colleagues expressed any negative feelings about the ordeal. They just concluded he had a bad day. Our company paid for the damages and my colleague kept his job. A few months later he did leave but only because he had chosen to. I was simply flabbergasted.

A buddy of mine, entry level IT guy, was put on paid leave "arrêt maladie" because he had a bad breakup with his GF back in 2021, and he sort of went drunk. I mean, his doctor wrote him an "ordonnance" for it, so it's all square with social security, but 4 years later he's still getting paid 50% of his salary and spent most of his time at home buying computer parts and really cool wine collection. I think he's considering looking for a new job right now, but he's unsure. And we're talking about a public $100 billion household insurance company with 150k employees paying him off, not some crazy VC funded ping-pong table startup. d So he's obviously replaceable, but I'm guessing its more cost-efficient to just keep in on payroll than firing him.

Nervous or mental breakdowns were taboo topics right until covid. It is still the case to a certain degree but people talk more about it now and colleagues simply rationalize the reasons. French are not really used to show their emotions or express the way they really feel at work (and in life in general). By the time they have had enough, it is usually too late because they have crossed the breaking point so many times that their mind is already in pieces. Everybody knows that in the work space. So there is simply no need to add to the dramatic situation since everybody can experience it. Time and healthcare are given to heal and life goes on. The employee goes back to work and decides how he wanna write the next chapter of his life with the implicit support of his colleagues.

In the US, employers require you to give 2 weeks notice to quit a job. On the flip side, employers terminate employees without notice. As soon as you are notified, if you are in the office physically, security will escort you out the door immediately. It's double standard.

As a Swiss entrpreneur, I would never move my company to France because its too dangerous. You may face adversity in your business like losing a major contract, then you find you can't lower the headcount fast to protect the business, and you go bankrupt and everybody loses, even the employees who would have otherwise remained on board. France as a country attractive to investment has been completely sabotaged by the socialists who just cannot understand, because they don't have the mental flexibility, that by making it easy for an entrepreneur to fire, you make it equally easy for them to open a new job and hire, because there is less risks. But because its to hard to fire, you think twice before opening new positions or you move the workplaces abroad.

@user-md9bk5ws4k 8 ай бұрын

This video was a bit of an eye-opener for me - I knew Europe had good "social security", so to speak, but didn't realize how good. Let me tell you, Arielle, my story. I live in the US. After getting a university degree in Engineering I became gainfully employed. Very long story short, in 14 years in the high tech industry I was laid off 3 times - basically every 4 years. The first time I was only 25 yrs old and that experience, and the other 2, left me w/PTSD. In the US you can lose your job for any reason or no reason. I was not given any notice of these lay-offs and got either 2 weeks pay or, in one case, 30 days pay. After 14 yrs of this torture and living in fear, I decided, like you , to start my own business. I became a self-employed massage therapist and I had to go to school and get certified. I had to pay for the school myself and also for the certification. No help from ex-employer nor the govt. I took a 63% pay cut to take a job that would help me gain experience in massage/healthcare. I had to sell my house, at a loss, and lived off what was left of my down payment because the salary I was making was not liveable. I was fortunate to have a friend who let me live with him for a fairly inexpensive rate. When the downpayment money was gone, I had to live off my 401K. When that was exhausted I had to file bankruptcy. This was all until I was able to finish school, start my business, and build my clientele to the point I could make a living wage. That took years. Mine is not a rare story. There are others who have much worse stories. The USA is the greatest country in the world?? Really?? There's a lot that Americans say about Europe and about "Socialism", but at least there is some actual "social security" in Europe. Yes, Europe has very high taxes, but you get what you pay for. We have high taxes too, but still do not have the services nor any "social security". I too have been thinking about getting a European passport through my husband's Italian lineage. Best of wishes to you, Arielle, you are an inspiration! This video also made me realize I wasn't a subscriber to your channel even though I've watched many of your videos. I'm a subscriber now! I'm so looking forward to your adventures and would appreciate more explanation of how you obtained your European passport and costs associated with that and more content on life as an ex-pat. Thank you! :)

I'm also a dual citizen, and also worked in Europe. But the pay is usually terrible compared to in the US, unless you get lucky and find a generous company. Then it's not so easy to find a job either, because it being so difficult to fire or lay people off, companies are very cautious with hiring. Of course the vacation allowances are better, where one often receives 4-6 weeks off a year in most European countries (by law). But it can be difficult to climb the career ladder, with jobs often static; one has little room to advance their position within the company. And changing jobs takes more time/effort in Europe. So in my opinion there are positives and minuses, and we can't say the European social net is all good, as it has definite drawbacks.

What an amazing plan that France has for people who are being laid off! I've never heard of that before. In my state, Washington, employment is considered "at will". This means that an employee or employer can terminate employment without a reason. Now, if you belong to a union, that's the "sticking point". I belong to the teacher union and I'd have to do something pretty bad to be fired. Best of luck on your business journey! I enjoy your videos!

I moved to France from Canada 4yr ago on my UK passport and the BREXIT. My world was turned upside down.... It took me 3yr and to get my Irish citizenship and then my Irish passport. Those 3yr were filled with anxiety and never knowing how long I was actually going to be able to stay. I owe my new life to my grandfather who was born and raised in Ireland and moved to Canada to give his family a better life, which then allowed me this opportunity to live and move anywhere in the EU. I can understand your struggle. I wish you all the best. Life living abroad is very rewarding but equally stressful and very difficult to navigate at times.

Congrats on launching your own business. You truly rock Arielle and always smile in your videos. I wish you luck with establishing your start up and I’m sure you’ll thrive. Even though we’ve never met in person, I feel that we have a lot in common. We both understand and see the advantages of living and traveling abroad. We also know how rewarding it is to learn French or any foreign language. Basically your videos appeal to me mainly because we share similar interests.

That's a good deal for employees in France that you just don't let go. Here in the US you barley get anything. My company gave me 1 month of pay. Unemployment is $380 per week (some people get less if their salary was not as high at their job) and you only get up to $10,000. Additionally, all the unemployment you receive is taxable. In most states the less than $1,600 is not even enough to pay your rent.

OMG, the U.S. is SO far behind in so many ways, this area for sure. They drop you with a moments notice and tough luck to you. I'm really respecting France right now with how they are taking care of their workers. For a minute I thought you were going to say you're moving to Italy.

So smart of you were to fix being able to stay in Paris if you want to without the job you had! The French labor laws seem to put people's lives first which you dont see happening in Canada with layoffs very stressful life changing time for people. You have great detail in your vlogs & I am sure you have lots of great content coming out way. Happy you can work at something you enjoy!

Mind that she speaks about economical layoff which is the most comfortable but rare situation. Usually, you are layoff with a compensation of 1.5 month per worked year then you have a blank period of about 1 month during which you are not having job seeker national funds. Then after that month, you are entitled of a job seeker allowance which is about 60% of your last salary. Regarding paid training, remember that she is on a special very unique scheme which 99% of french don't get. Mind too that job seeker allowance is having a maximum duration. Last, if you are a foreigner with limited language capabilities, you might not have big chance to find a job. Still last: mind that she has a European passport. If you haven't, your stay move to a tourist reason of stay with only 90 days of France residency allowance and surely not job seeker funds.
