Who can apply
Any company that falls within the scope of a national objectives agreement (via the social security risk number used for pricing and shown in the agreement), has a total workforce of fewer than 200 employees, is up to date with its social obligations, notably URSSAF contributions, and has a prevention project. Professional organisations sign national objectives agreements on their side.
Eligibility conditions
The prevention contract is signed with the CRAM (regional health insurance fund), the CARSAT or the CGSS, and can only be signed if the company’s professional organisation has first signed an objectives agreement with the national health insurance fund for employees (CNAMTS, now Cnam). Signing a contract involves 4 successive steps: 1) the CRAM (or CARSAT) or CGSS and the company draw up the contract on the basis of a risk assessment setting out the initial risk situation, the final objectives, the action programme, the investments to be made, the completion deadlines, the amount of the fund’s contribution, and the conditions for assessing results and acquiring the advances; 2) consultation of the health, safety and working conditions committee (CHSCT) or staff representatives; 3) consultation of the regional labour and vocational training directorate (DRTEFP) and the Cnam’s occupational risks directorate; 4) signing of the contract between the company and the CRAM (or CARSAT) or CGSS.
What the scheme covers
The prevention contract is concluded between the CARSAT (regional pension and occupational health fund; CRAM in Île-de-France) or the CGSS (general social security fund in the overseas departments) and a company covered by a national objectives agreement, which sets a prevention programme specific to its branch of activity. These contracts define the objectives the company commits to and the aid, particularly financial, provided by the CARSAT/CRAM or CGSS.
Amount and funding terms
