Approche juridique du handicap psychique : les enjeux d’une définition en droit social

RésuméÀ la différence de bien des normes internationales, européennes ou étrangères, la loi française du 11 février 2005 vise expressément le « handicap psychique » en termes d’altération des fonctions psychiques. Cette mention traduit la reconnaissance d’une catégorie particulière de handicap et de population. Toutefois, il existe peu de dispositifs adaptés à sa prise en charge. On s’en tient souvent à transposer les outils fabriqués pour le handicap physique. Par ailleurs, le bénéfice de certaines prestations sociales a tendance aujourd’hui à être soumis à la contrepartie d’une volonté d’insertion sociale et professionnelle. Une telle exigence peut s’avérer radicalement contradictoire avec une prise en charge du handicap psychique. Enfin, le contexte économique de concurrence entre entreprises et entre travailleurs, associée aux caractéristiques du handicap psychique (instable, évolutif, invisible) est peu favorable à l’activité, l’emploi ou le maintien en emploi des personnes handicapées psychiques, même si des outils juridiques « classiques » existent (contrats « aidés », suspension de contrat, droit à reclassement et aménagement de poste). La discrimination dont souffrent les personnes handicapées psychiques risque de perdurer tant que des réponses spécifiques ne seront pas mises en œuvre.AbstractUnlike many international standards in Europe and elsewhere, the French law of 11 February 2005 refers expressly to psychic disability. The term acknowledges the existence of a particular category of disability and population. However, few provisions exist to address this kind of disability. Often, the mechanisms devised for physical handicap are simply transposed to this kind of disability. In addition, there is a trend today towards entitlement to certain benefits being made conditional on the recipient showing a willingness to be integrated socially and professionally. A requirement of this kind can come into sharp conflict with the handling of psychic disability. Finally, the economic context of competition between companies and workers, combined with the very characteristics of psychic disability (unstable, evolutive, invisible), is hardly conducive to the activity or employment of those with a psychic disability or to keeping them in work, although “traditional” legal mechanisms do exist (State-aided contracts, suspensions of contract, transfers to a more suitable position or adaptation of the workstation to requirements). The discrimination suffered by people with a psychic disability is likely to continue as long as specific responses are not implemented

The establishment of a duty of vigilance of the transnational corporations or how not to let the foxes take care of the world chicken coop freely

¿Es posible responsabilizar a las empresas matrices, cuando las acciones de sus filiales o subcontratistas causan daños sociales, sanitarios y medioambientales? En 2017, una ley francesa instauró un ¿deber de vigilancia¿ de las sociedades matrices y de las empresas contratistas. ¿Cuáles son las empresas y los derechos afectados? La ley prevé la elaboración y publicidad de un ¿plan de vigilancia¿, cuya violación puede ser objeto de sanciones.Is it permissible to involve the liability of the parent companies when the actions of their subsidiaries or subcontractors cause social, health and environmental damage?A French law introduced in 2017 a duty of vigilance for parent companies and contracting companies.The law provides for the elaboration and the publicity of a ¿vigilance plan¿, the violation of which may be subject to sanctions.Universidad Pablo de Olavid

CRMP5 Regulates Generation and Survival of Newborn Neurons in Olfactory and Hippocampal Neurogenic Areas of the Adult Mouse Brain

The Collapsin Response Mediator Proteins (CRMPs) are highly expressed in the developing brain, and in adult brain areas that retain neurogenesis, ie: the olfactory bulb (OB) and the dentate gyrus (DG). During brain development, CRMPs are essentially involved in signaling of axon guidance and neurite outgrowth, but their functions in the adult brain remain largely unknown. CRMP5 has been initially identified as the target of auto-antibodies involved in paraneoplasic neurological diseases and further implicated in a neurite outgrowth inhibition mediated by tubulin binding. Interestingly, CRMP5 is also highly expressed in adult brain neurogenic areas where its functions have not yet been elucidated. Here we observed in both neurogenic areas of the adult mouse brain that CRMP5 was present in proliferating and post-mitotic neuroblasts, while they migrate and differentiate into mature neurons. In CRMP5−/− mice, the lack of CRMP5 resulted in a significant increase of proliferation and neurogenesis, but also in an excess of apoptotic death of granule cells in the OB and DG. These findings provide the first evidence that CRMP5 is involved in the generation and survival of newly generated neurons in areas of the adult brain with a high level of activity-dependent neuronal plasticity

On Labour Market Intermediation in France

This contribution makes an analysis of labour market intermediation services in France. In doing so, attention is paid to the developments and influences that made the labour market intermediation function evolve over time. The liberalisation and restructuring of the intermediation market in France is taken into account, seen the adoption of ILO Convention No. 181. While the public function remains unchallenged in the recruitment of unemployed people with rather low qualifi cation levels, private employment agencies today focus on qualified employees who are already in work, or individuals seeking outplacement. Nevertheless, the practical effects of free-market principles should not overestimated
