New individual rights came along with certification, which cast the individual as an actor of his/her professional life. This article questions the bases of this project and its prospects. It tends to certify the productive qualities of the individuals without guaranteeing anything back.

Far from being a measure at the service of individual workers, it is conceived as an instrument for employers to select and manage the workforce.
