Transparency is the foundation of trust. When we compare a provider billing €25 per hour and a total employer cost in Direct Employment (Gré à Gré) of €18 per hour, the €7 difference is not insignificant. It is the cost of management and margin, which does not contribute to the quality of the service.
Simplified Breakdown (Approximate Examples):
Provider Model (Ex. €25/h) Direct Employment Model (Ex. €18/h)
Caregiver Net Salary ∼€11.50 ∼€12.50 (Better paid)
Employer Social Contributions ∼€5.50 ∼€5.50
Structural Costs / Margin ∼€8.00 €0 (Saving)
Total Cost €25.00 €18.00
The saving is €7/hour. This amount is crucial. In the Provider model, you finance the organization; in Direct Employment, you finance the person.
My role as an administrative professional is decisive. It is Christophe Delong, your SAP Auto-entrepreneur (Personal Services – Home Administrative Assistance), who establishes this financial dashboard, justifies it, and ensures the traceability of funds (PCH, APA, personal funds). I am the guarantor of the legality of transactions and declarations on the CESU portal. Backed by my expertise as a former PRM doctor, I ensure that administrative management always aligns with the beneficiary’s life and care project
