Evolution of RMI
According to an INSEE 2001 study, a quarter of the RMI beneficents had an employ or a remunerated "stage." During the 21 months preceding the study, half of the beneficents passed through a period of employment, generally part-time, and a quarter only CDI (Indeterminate Length Contract). The medium wage of these active people was of 610 Euros (after paying taxes).
In 1994, in metropolitan France, the number of claimants of RMI was 783,436; ten years later (in June 2004), it had increased to 1,041,026. In the DOM, it was 105,033 in 1994, and 152,892 in June 2004. By 31 December 2005, the figure stood at 1,112,400. From December 2004 to December 2005, the number of RMI claimants increased by 4,7% according to the Secours catholique NGO
In 2004, the government of Jean-Pierre Raffarin created the Revenu minimum d'activité (RMA) which is designed to replace the RMI. The RMA enforces much more strictly the obligations of claimants to find work.
