LORD runs six complementary programs to support audiences who are most distant from social rights and culture in France.
URSSAF is the agency that collects social contributions in France. Our URSSAF help program supports private individuals, freelancers and small employers: understanding contributions, online declarations, formal notices, payment plan requests, friendly appeals and disputes.
CESU URSSAF is the simplified service for declaring an employee at home. Many individual employers and household cleaners are unaware of their respective rights. LORD offers dedicated guidance: CESU declaration, contract, payslip, holiday pay, withholding tax, retirement and unemployment rights.

Artists (authors, visual artists, musicians, intermittent performers) navigate a complex administrative environment: artist-author social security (URSSAF Limousin), Audiens, France Travail spectacle, MDA, AGESSA. LORD assists artists with social and tax procedures.
Beyond individual support, LORD encourages artistic creation in France: resources, networking, workshops and project guidance for collectives or emerging artists, particularly in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region.
