Profils et trajectoires des travailleurs dans les entreprises sociales d'insertion

This article analyses the profiles and trajectories of the workers who entered a work integration social enterprise (WISE). First, we describe the objective and subjective profile (level of employability evaluated by the managers of the social enterprises) of these workers at the time of their entry in the WISE. We show that there is not a unique profile at the entry and that it is possible to group the workers into 5 different categories. Then we present the links between these groups and the different kinds of work integration enterprises from the point of view of financing. Finally, we describe the variables that influence the improvement of the abilities during the stay in the WISE, the length of this stay as well as the probability to be at work after having left the social enterprise.
