The number of "cheap" detached workers in France increased by 23.8 per cent last year, going from 286,025 in 2015 to 354,151 in 2016, the AFP news agency reported.

In 2005, only 26,466 posted workers were registered in the country.

Although the new figures reveal a “staggering increase” in the number of France-based ‘foreign’ EU workers, the rise needs to be interpreted “with caution,” the General Directorate of Labour said.

Companies are “more aware of the rules” regarding the terms and conditions of employment to be applied to posted workers, while the country has “reinforced controls to fight against fraud and abuses,” the labour body added. and more discription link given below-
