The Active Solidarity Income (RSA) has been operational since July 2009. It replaces RMI (minimum integration income) and api (single parent allowance). The aim is to make work more attractive than inactivity through a complementary solidarity income that gradually decreases with household income. The objective is twofold: it should encourage the beneficiaries of the social minima to return to work and it provides support for workers who, despite their employment, remain poor. This device has led to a lot of inks and real controversy. Questions relating to the quality of the jobs created, the career paths of persons benefiting from the SSA, the means put in place to support the beneficiaries of the minimum social standards in employment, and the standard of employment which would be institutionalised by the SSA were raised. But in this turbulent debate, once again and with few exceptions, the impact on women’s integration into the labour market was not addressed. However, they are particularly affected by this reform of social minima, in several respects. [First paragraph]
