Labour Needs Survey (BMO)

Each year, France Travail sends a questionnaire to establishments to find out their recruitment needs by sector of activity and by employment area. Of the 2.5 million establishments covered by the survey, almost 426 000 responses were collected and exploited for the whole of France.

For the BMO 2024 survey, the classification of occupations in occupational families (FAP) has been updated from FAP2009 to FAP2021.

This survey is an essential element of knowledge of the labour market.

It allows, among other things:
- anticipate recruitment difficulties;
- improving the orientation of jobseekers towards training or occupations in line with the needs of the labour market;
- to inform jobseekers about the development of their labour market and promising occupations.
