“Professions such as bakery-pastry will generally no longer be able to send their employees to training from June. Other professions may be impacted., alarm Laurent Munerot, president of the National Confederation of Crafts, Trades and Services (CNAMS), and vice-president of the Union of local businesses (U2P) in charge of vocational training. In 53 professional branches representing 3 million employees in crafts, real estate or even hairdressing, training organized by companies risks being drastically reduced from 2023.
This situation is the consequence of a reduction in the endowment that the local business skills operator (OPCO EP), on which these professions depend, receives each year from the France Skills institution. This sum should help companies with less than 50 employees to finance their skills development plan (PDC), ie all the training actions put in place for their employees.
The management of the OPCO, which should have received 166 million euros – a sum which was entirely spent by the companies -, finally received only 123. And it only learned the news by mail on 14 April, when its 2022 financial year had been closed for three months. Consequence: a negative net result, fortunately amortized by recourse to its own funds.
This fall is explained by a change in the rules for the distribution of funds between the eleven OPCOs: a decree certifies that it will now depend on the number of full-time equivalents depending on each OPCO, and no longer on the number of employees. However, employees in the branch of private employers (childcare, cleaning, etc.), most of whom work part-time, depend on EPs, which means that their number goes from 1.27 million workers to 447,000 FTE . Thus, the total number of FTEs fell from 3 million to 2.2, which justifies the drop in the share received by the OPCO out of the 552 million allocated in total in France.
Absence d’anticipation
If the branches concerned and the operator can only regret this change, they also deplore the lack of information regarding it, and the lack of anticipation, given that the decree in question dates from December 2021. “It is abnormal that we return in April 2023 to the 2022 financial year, and following having been informed twice of an agreed budgetary envelopeindignant Laurent Munerot. This is inadmissible, how do you manage any establishment if we learn regarding the staffing four months following the end of the financial year? »
