framework contract for services
In the 'Personnel' section of a framework contract containing largely formulaic clauses we find this provision on foreign workers:
"X garantit, via la fourniture d’une attestation du X au Y, la régularité des séjours des ressources internationales utilisées pour tout ou partie des services, notamment au regard des visas de travail, conformément aux législations sociales applicables et aux stipulations du Contrat Cadre."
Although social security contributions were mentioned in the previous clause, would 'social security' still be the most appropriate translation of 'sociales' here, or would 'employment' (derived from the interpretation of 'sociales' as 'pertaining to the workforce') be better here?
I am not able to contemplate 'social legislation'!

employment legislation/law
Since the text is discussing visas etc. the context is broader than "social security". It's referring to the legally-mandated employment conditions, so employment legislation or employment law would be appropriate.

: Yes. "Sociale" can mean business (siège social = corporate seat), and in this case it's about all types of legislation directed at businesses (including but not limited to social security etc.).

Discussion
Some programs, including Social Security, Medicare, unemployment insurance, and Workers' Compensation, are called social insurance programs because they are designed to protect citizens against hardship due to old age, unemployment, or injury. Because people receiving benefits from these programs generally have contributed toward their benefits by paying payroll taxes during the years that they worked, these social insurance programs are usually thought of as earned rewards for work.

If "social legislation" is too vague, "employment legislation" certainly is too restrictive.

Je trouve particulièrement risqué de réduire "les législations sociales applicables" à la réglementation sur l'emploi. Un exemple: les Québécois bénéficient de l'assurance-santé dans la mesure où ils ne quittent pas la province plus que 180 jours par année - que ce soit pour le loisir ou le travail; le cas échéant, il faut prévoir une assurance privée. Cet aspect n'est pas couvert par la législation sur l'emploi dans un contrat de travail.
