The Revenu de solidarité active (RSA) is a form of welfare benefit for unemployed or underemployed workers in France.

The source adds the following information: "The Revenu de solidarité active (RSA), which came into effect on June 1, 2009, provides people without resources with a minimum level of income that varies according to the composition of the household. The RSA is open, under certain conditions, to people aged at least 25 years and to people aged 18 to 24 years if they are single parents or if they have been working for a certain length of time.

Jobseekers in category A are unemployed persons who are required to perform positive job search acts, looking for work, regardless of the type of contract (permanent, fixed-term, full-time, part-time, temporary or seasonal). "
