After receiving the opinion of the Haut Conseil du dialogue social, the Minister responsible for labour draws up the list of professional employers’ organisations recognised as representative by professional branch and of professional employers’ organisations recognised as representative at national and inter-professional or multi-professional level. To this end, the Minister verifies that the criteria defined in this chapter are met and ensures in particular that the amount of contributions paid by member companies and, where applicable, professional organisations is such as to establish the reality of their membership.
