The French career register (répertoire de gestion de carrières unique - RGCU) New reference database, new perspectives
The French pension system is made up of schemes by major types of professions: they manage information on the careers of their insured persons in order to calculate their rights and then pay their pensions when they retire. In 2010, it was decided to build a single repository containing details of the careers of the entire French population. The RGCU (Répertoire de Gestion des Carrières Unique) should ultimately optimise management processes by centralising data and improving its completeness and quality.
Building a repository first requires the data, whatever its origin, to be structured with unique concepts and semantics. The automation of the feed-in flows is then a major asset for the continuous improvement of the quality of the directory.
The RGCU will then contain very detailed information on the career of insured persons, with periods and income from paid employment, or inactivity due to unemployment and illness. Such a wealth of data in terms of both breadth (the entire population) and depth (the entire career detailed in terms of periods and income since the origin of the schemes), should lead the RGCU to become a valuable source for social studies.
