L’accès à l’eau et aux douches des travailleurs mobiles en période de crise sanitaire

Keeping wages low :In France, no real labour shortage, but rationing of seasonal workers and occupational travelers during covid

Communication d’Arnaud Lemarchand à la “7th Conference of the Regulating for Decent Work Network”, International Labour Office Geneva, Switzerland, 6-9 July 2021

Cette communication étudie l’impact de la crise sanitaire sur les conditions de travail et de logement des travailleurs mobiles : les saisonniers utilisant des logements mobiles (comme les fourgonnettes ou les camping-cars) et les voyageurs professionnels en France.

Arnaud Le Marchand y aborde notamment la question de l’accès à l’eau et aux douches : “It seems that, during lockdown, some basic worker rights have been forgotten. But, it is only an intensification, of what was happening on normal times. Right to shower on workplace is not acted. As right to sanitary facility is fundamental, these examples reminds us that precariousness can affect human rights. This lack of sanitation equipment, including toilets and showers, is part of the social construction of the undesirability of theses itinerant workers.“
