In Ligue 1 alone, thousands of jobs were thwarted by the Covid-19 crisis.
It is an agonizing time for everyone, sometimes less for fear of the virus and its effects, than of its consequences for the world economy. And on maintaining jobs. Football is no exception, it is a sector affected as everywhere. Since Emmanuel Mac’s intervention on March 12, no more sporting events are allowed. As authorized by French law, the majority of clubs have entered a partial unemployment phase for their staff.
PSG has the most, OM or LOSC close to the average
How many are there to serve the Ligue 1 teams on a daily basis, beyond the sporting sphere, in the administrative context? The elements below enlighten us. These are the data that we found with Infogreffe, for each of the clubs of the 2019-20 season. However, these figures must be qualified, firstly because the accounts are not always deposited, or because there are special features everywhere; for example differentiate at PSG, the activity, that of other disciplines such as hand. Otherwise, they are more numerous than the 483 employees, dedicated to the sole practice of football.
ASSE or TFC in the low range of Ligue 1 staff
On average, French Ligue 1 clubs have 135 employees, like LOSC or OM were close to the 2016 and 2017 balance sheet figures for the other. A quarter of the structures have around 50 or fewer employees, including the Toulouse Football club or ASSE. With the extent of the health crisis, all employees (football and elsewhere) are forced, at best to work in unprecedented and sometimes precarious conditions, at worst to be placed on partial unemployment, with reduced activity or zero and a reduced salary (they are compensated up to 84% of their net salary at least). Nearly four million French people are affected by the measure.
