Hev&Jon Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Hi,I worked as a nanny here in France for 7 months and my contract finished at the end of October 2007 (it was a seasonal contract). I have since been unable to find work and therefore have been "au chomage" and claiming "allocations".Does anybody know what would happen to these "allocations" if I were to fall pregnant? Would I still be classed as a job seeker?Thanks in advance.Heather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busy Bee Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Hi Heather,If you were to fall pregnant you would be a jobseeker until the start of your maternity leave, this is paid by CPAM - depending on how much you have worked/earned in the past. Your right to unemployment benefit would be suspended in the meantime. Both times I was pregnant I was on CDD's followed by chomage - one ANPE advisor said not to worry as I had no chance of finding work and the second time the ANPE told me I was not obliged to tell a future employer! Good start to a working relationship - and besides at 5 months pregnant it was pretty obvious! I was super fortunate my gyne did not believe pregnant women should work so put me on sickness instead - old fashioned, sexist maybe but very convenient!Busy Bee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
