Registration numbers in Hauts-de-Seine

In the Hauts-de-Seine, 130,700 people were registered with France Travail in categories A, B, or C on average during the third quarter of 2026. Their number increased by 1,780 compared to the previous quarter, representing 1.4 percent, and by 4.6 percent compared to the same period one year earlier.

Breakdown of registration categories

Among those registered and required to seek employment, 83,560 are not engaged in any activity (category A), 18,920 have short-term reduced activity (B), and 28,210 have long-term reduced activity (C). The number of unemployed people in category A increased by 4.4 percent compared to one year earlier.

Long-term registration trends

Nearly 45 percent of the registered individuals have been registered for at least one year. The increase is particularly marked for those who have been registered for a long time, with 58,780 continuously registered for at least one year in categories A, B, or C, compared to 54,470 one year earlier.

Duration of registration growth

The longest durations are also increasing. The department has 19,320 people registered for three years or more, an increase of 8.7 percent compared to one year earlier, and 12,060 registered for two to less than three years, or 9 percent more. Conversely, registrations for less than one year increased by 2.1 percent, to 71,920.

Youth registration increase

Among the young people, the increase is even more pronounced. The number of registered individuals under 25 years of age reaches 14,110, an increase of 9.1 percent compared to one year earlier. Among them, 10,130 belong to category A, which includes people without activity, representing 6.9 percent more than in the third quarter of 2025.

Age group disparities

The 25-49 year olds represent the majority of people in categories A, B, or C, with 81,370 registered, an increase of 5.4 percent compared to one year earlier. For those aged 50 and over, the numbers reach 35,210, with a more moderate increase of 1.2 percent. These differences in evolution show that the increase in registrations does not affect all generations uniformly.

Registration definitions and scope

These figures describe administrative registrations with France Travail and not the unemployment rate calculated by INSEE according to the definition of the International Labour Organization. They are established in quarterly averages, after correcting for seasonal variations and working days.

New registration categories

Since January 2025, registration with France Travail has also systematically included certain RSA beneficiaries, young people accompanied by local missions, and people followed by Cap Emploi. Two specific categories have been created: F for people on a social pathway and G for those waiting for orientation. In the Hauts-de-Seine, they count respectively 6,188 and 9,692 registered in the third quarter of 2026, in raw data. These figures are not included in the 130,700 people in categories A, B, and C.

Future report timeline

The next departmental report, dedicated to the fourth quarter of 2026, is scheduled for January 28, 2027. It will allow to assess whether the increase in long-term registrations observed this autumn continues.
