A permit to obtain the right to refer workers

The Carnet référence construction functions on the principle of transparency. An association must obtain a permit to refer workers to employers.

Whenever a request is made, the system will generate random lists from among skilled workers in the bank of Professional Profiles for the employer that makes the request. At the same time, all eligible associations with a permit, depending on the referral request, will be informed of the needs expressed and may thus refer candidates of their own.

To do this, however, the association must:

• Be one of the associations named in Act R-20
• Have obtained a permit for the purpose from the Bureau des permis

In this way, all parties play by the same rules, which encourages transparency and diversity of workforce sources.

It goes without saying that referring workers without holding a permit will be an infraction.
