Abstract: [fre] Chaque mois, une grande majorité des embauches ne correspondent qu'à de simples renouvellements de personnels, sans effets sur le niveau de l'emploi. Ces rotations de personnels reflètent avant tout le processus par lequel les établisse­ments testent et mettent continuellement à l'essai de nouveaux salariés. Ce pro­cessus de sélection s'intensifie en même temps que les réorganisations internes, lorsque l'entreprise se développe. L'intensité et la cyclicité des flux de travailleurs peuvent se théoriser en modélisant l'embauche comme un processus de sélec­tion-intégration. [eng] Flows of workers into and out of plants are each year quite huge and can only be slightly explained by job creations and destructions. The excess of wor­kers turnover looks like a pure replacement process, which allows plants to select the most adequate labor force, which will be promoted later on. This Rota­tion/Selection/Promotion process intensifies during upturns. These results can be justified by explicitely modelling hiring as an integration process with no need of the traditional hypothesis of adjustment costs.
