Franck Carpentier

Franck Carpentier is a cadre (executive) within the Finistère department in France. He, along with the president of the department (whose political affiliation is 'divers droite'), is being summoned to appear before the Brest correctional court in June. This legal action stems from accusations of 'institutional moral harassment' brought forth by six recipients of RSA (Revenu de Solidarité Active, a form of welfare) and members of the CGT (a French trade union). The case is considered by the Finistère department to be 'clearly political'. The core of the issue revolves around alleged harassment of RSA recipients. The upcoming court hearing will examine the arguments presented by the RSA recipients and the CGT against Carpentier and the departmental president, focusing on the alleged institutional harassment.
