N1 - 19 N2 - This article analyses the legal structure of a groupement d’employeurs (a consortium of employers for pooling human resources). A GE can be set up as a non-profit organisation or as a cooperative such as a société coopérative d’intérêt collectif (community-interest cooperative), which is the subject of this study. Over the past ten years, very few GEs have taken the SCIC form even though community-interest cooperatives have been multiplying. We want to understand the reasons for this and identify the differences and similarities between a non-profit GE and a SCIC GE in order to answer the question of why a GE would become a SCIC rather than a non-profit organisation. While a GE can be set up from scratch as a SCIC or converted into one or even be used to combine different structures, our examination of the practice has revealed another approach. A GE can constitute an additional function to a pre-existing SCIC that needs to pool human resources. The SCIC would thus be a structure that helps grow the business of the GE rather than a legal form to be promoted just as a way of structuring a GE UR - https://shs.cairn.info/journal-recma-2016-2-page-36?lang=en ER -
