Examples of Multiple Assignments in a French Enterprise

This topic illustrates examples covering different scenarios where an employee has multiple assignments in a French enterprise. The examples are set in a fictional company, InFusion Paris, which is a legal entity.

InFusion Paris is also defined as a legal employer and payroll statutory unit (PSU). The company has implemented a three-tier employment model. There are two branch offices, InFusion Nice and InFusion Brittany. Each branch office is a tax reporting unit and a reporting establishment. Each branch office has several departments, including InFusion Sales and Marketing (SM), InFusion Manufacturing and Operations (MO), and InFusion Legal Operations (LO).

Multiple Departments in a Single Reporting Establishment

This example illustrates an employee assigned to multiple departments in the branch office (InFusion Nice) of the company (InFusion Paris). The employee has one contract with InFusion Nice reporting establishment, which covers two assignments. Supported employment models for this example are:

3-Tier - Multiple Employment Terms - Multiple Assignment
3-Tier - Single Employment Terms - Multiple Assignment

You must create the following details for the employee:

One Work Relationship, WR1, with InFusion Paris

One Payroll Relationship, PR1, with InFusion Paris

One Employment Terms, ER1, for InFusion Nice

Assignment1 in department InFusion SM, part-time at 60 percent

Assignment2 in department InFusion MO, part-time at 40 percent

Only one Statement of Earnings is generated, and no assignment-level split of earnings is required. Employee earnings, legal reporting, and declarations are processed at the reporting establishment level. Even if the employee is reassigned to another department, only a new assignment is created without affecting the legal reports or declarations.

Multiple Establishments with Separate Declarations

This example illustrates an employee working with two separate establishments (InFusion Nice and InFusion Brittany) within the same company (InFusion Paris). Supported employment models for this example are:

3-Tier - Multiple Employment Terms - Multiple Assignment

3-Tier - Multiple Employment Terms - Single Assignment

The employee works part-time at both InFusion Nice and InFusion Brittany and has separate contracts with InFusion Nice and InFusion Brittany. You must create the following details for the employee:

One Work Relationship, WR1, with InFusion Paris

One Payroll Relationship, PR1, with InFusion Paris

One Employment Terms, ER1, for InFusion Nice with Assignment1

One Employment Terms, ER2, for InFusion Brittany with Assignment2

The employee receives a separate statement of earnings from each establishment for each contract. Each reporting establishment independently processes the employee earnings, payments, legal reporting, and declarations.

Multiple Employment Terms or Contracts

Multiple employment terms or contracts are required when an employee has distinct roles that are subject to different rules for processing earnings, legal reporting, and declarations. The most common scenarios are:

A manager and a nonmanager

Permanent contract (part-time) and fixed-term contract (part-time) for the same employee

This example illustrates an employee working as a manager and a nonmanager in the same reporting establishment. The employee has two contracts with InFusion Nice, Contract1 as a marketing manager and Contract2 as a regular employee at the creative design department. The employee must have separate contracts because different rules apply to a manager and a nonmanager.

Supported employment models for this example are:

3-Tier - Multiple Employment Terms - Multiple Assignment

3-Tier - Multiple Employment Terms - Single Assignment

You must create the following details for the employee:

One Work Relationship, WR1, with InFusion Paris

One Payroll Relationship, PR1, with InFusion Paris

One Employment Terms, ER1, for InFusion Nice with Assignment1 as manager

One Employment Terms, ER2, for InFusion Nice with Assignment2 as nonmanager

The employment category is part-time. The employee receives separate statement of earnings for each contract. Earnings, payments, legal reporting, and declarations are processed for each contract separately.

Multiple Assignments for Different Person Types

Possible scenarios for multiple assignments for different person types are:

Employee and trainee (nonworker)

Employee and contingent worker

Supported employment models for this example are:

2-Tier - Single Contract - Single Assignment

3-Tier - Multiple Employment Terms - Multiple Assignment

3-Tier - Multiple Employment Terms - Single Assignment

3-Tier - Single Employment Terms - Multiple Assignment

Employee and Trainee (Nonworker)

In this scenario, the employee has one fixed-term contract and one training agreement with InFusion Nice. You must create the following details for the employee:

One Work Relationship, WR1, for person type Employee with InFusion Paris

One Payroll Relationship, PR1, for person type Employee with InFusion Paris

One Employment Terms, ER1, for Assignment1 as a fixed-term employee

One Work Relationship, WR2, for person type Trainee with InFusion Paris

One Payroll Relationship, PR2, for person type Trainee with InFusion Paris

One Employment Terms2, ER2, for Assignment2 as Trainee

The employee receives an for the fixed-term contract. The trainee has no salary. If the training period is more than two months, then the trainee receives a bonus which is processed separately.

Earnings, payments, legal reporting, and declarations are processed for the contract and as per the training agreement.

Employee and Contingent Worker

The person has a permanent contract with InFusion Paris as a part-time employee. The person also performs specialized tasks as a contingent worker. You must create the following details for the employee:

One Payroll Relationship, PR1, for person type Employee with InFusion Paris

One Work Relationship, WR1, for person type Employee with InFusion Paris

One Employment Terms, ER1, with Assignment1 as an employee

One Work Relationship, WR2, for person type Contingent Worker with InFusion Paris

One Assignment2 as a contingent worker

Note: No payroll relationship is required for contingent worker as the person has no payment through the company payroll.

Legal reporting for the contingent worker is processed by the reporting establishment.
