| Abstract |
Occupational physicians in Paris had the opportunity to follow a new type of enterprise, the start-up. Their attention was drawn by the contrast between the personal effort of the employees and the material and working-hour conditions which they judged to be particularly constraining. They expressed the interest to study this special population over a longer period. While it was possible to establish the baseline conditions at the start of the study, the rapid rate of disappearance of start-up enterprises did not permit a longitudinal follow-up of the cohort of entrepreneurs. This article describes start-up enterprises, proposes the psychological profile of entrepreneurs and presents the trends in the working conditions of the few employees who remained within the field of observation. |
