The government gave them a hand. They have taken it, and intend not to let it go so far as to preempt the call. After a meeting on June 5, the leaders of the trade unions and employers will meet at the end of the month to decide on the content of the social agenda that they will present to the government. “We should be in a position to come to an agreement before the hundred days,” assured Geoffroy Roux de Bézieux on Tuesday during a press conference. The outgoing president of Medef referring to the July 14 deadline set by Emmanuel Macron to draw up an initial assessment of the government’s action.
Careers, seniors, working conditions, retraining, even wages… in mid-April, just following enacting the pension reform, the Head of State opened the door to a vast project to build “a new pact for life in the work “. Clearly, everything (and even more) that might not be treated with the reform. Elisabeth Borne detailed the program of the hundred days in stride and proposed to the social partners to stop the summary of the negotiations which they would like to carry out by themselves, the result of the negotiations having to feed one or two bills at the beginning of next year.
Three chapter headings
“The government has given a signal – is it doing it by calculation? out of belief? – that he will leave control to the social partners, which completely changes the situation […] We say chick, ”added Geoffroy Roux de Bézieux, without going into the details of the discussions in progress. He just let go that the social agenda will be divided into two blocks, depending on whether the negotiation topics are autonomous, that is to say without a government framework letter, or arising from the so-called “L1 », that is to say with a covering letter. One certainty, there will be a great senior theme.
There are in fact three chapter headings which are taking shape as follows, according to our information, for a start from September. The first, autonomous, brings together half a dozen headings: governance of joint social protection groups, a very technical subject but with major financial stakes; Agirc-Arrco supplementary pension (four-year agreement); follow-up committee for the national interprofessional agreement on teleworking; monitoring committee on the transposition of the value-sharing agreement; career paths and retraining; lastly, provident scheme for non-executives.
The second head of chapter, subject to a framework letter, is less extensive but no less important since we would find there, still at this stage of discussions between unions and employers, the employment of seniors and the universal time savings account. The third, finally, would relate to unemployment insurance, with two sub-chapters, governance and compensation rules.
If the first is at a standstill, the second must be launched without delay, the rules that the government has imposed no longer having effect from December 31. The negotiation looks bad if we are to believe the future ex-boss of Medef, for whom we cannot negotiate on anything other than what exists. Clearly, the executive has, on its own, tightened the conditions of eligibility and calculation of the allowance. It imposed its degressivity (for high incomes) and the variation of the duration of payment according to the economic situation. Of which act and it is from that that we must put ourselves around the table.
“As much on pensions, I can understand the union position which is coherent. As much as I think reformist labor organizations have not seen the change in the labor market. For three years, we have switched to a market where the supply of labor is greater than the demand […] in all sectors […] ; we cannot reason to keep the system of three years ago, it is not possible, ”warned Geoffroy Roux de Bézieux even if it is up to whoever is seeking his succession to decide. .
