The prefecture of Meurthe-et-Moselle announced Thursday the arrest on a construction site underway in its own premises of several foreign workers who have been placed in police custody, while checks revealed "non-compliant working conditions" .
"The border police (PAF), supported by the labor inspection services, made several arrests on a construction site taking place on the site of the prefecture," she said in a statement.
She specified that the companies in charge of the site were monitored by the "departmental anti-fraud operational committee".
The checks carried out revealed the presence of "undeclared or irregular" workers, and "non-compliant" working conditions.
Two foreign workers with false papers were taken into police custody. One of them was placed in detention.
The investigation, carried out by the PAF, "aims to identify the real employers of these seven foreigners supposed to have been hired by two different companies", declared to AFP the public prosecutor of Nancy, François Perain, according to which " two of these employees had not been declared to URSSAF ".
