The Minister of the Economy wants to present a Pacte II bill at the beginning of next year. In this context, the time limit for appealing once morest dismissal might be extended from one year to two months.
A shorter deadline to contest a dismissal? Bruno Le Maire wants to reduce the time limit for filing an appeal once morest a company in the event of dismissal to two months, compared to one year currently, within the framework of the Pacte II law. “We need drastic simplification measures for businesses,” said the Minister of the Economy in an interview with Le Parisien. “VSEs like SMEs, ETIs or large groups can no longer stand the paperwork and cumbersome procedures.”
“Today, when you dismiss a person, an appeal once morest the company remains possible for 12 months. It is important that employees can be protected, but this period is too long,” he insisted. “In all other developed countries, it’s two months. That seems like a good time frame to me.”
The minister would like this change to be included in the Pacte II bill, which he announced on Thursday, at the same time as his ambition to present it at the beginning of 2024. After the first Pacte law adopted in 2019, this text will be responsible for continuing the simplification of standards that hinder the growth of businesses, particularly small and medium-sized ones. The bill will be informed in particular by the proposals submitted during the consultations organized as part of the “Simplification Meetings”, launched by Bercy in mid-November.
Town planning disputes
In the interview with Le Parisien, Bruno Le Maire states that he also wants to include in this text a reduction in “deadlines for urban planning, commercial or public procurement disputes”. In the interview, he lists other “common sense” proposals: the automatic communication from one administration to another of information provided by companies or even the simplification of factory locations.
Furthermore, when asked regarding senior unemployment, he reaffirmed his desire to review the duration of compensation. In mid-November, he said he wanted to lower the duration of their compensation compared to that of other unemployed people, from 27 to 18 months. And to prevent those over 55 from being “pushed towards the exit well before their retirement”, new proposals are “needed”, he added.
“We might, for example, open the possibility to a person over 55 years old to have a contract for four-fifths of their time, paid at 90% and with 100% of their retirement contribution,” proposed the minister.
