Tensions are not easing within the Geneva Department of Health and Mobility (DSM), headed by Pierre Maudet. The Council of State is now looking for a solution to employ Secretary General Jean-Christophe Bretton, who requested his transfer, we learned from three consistent sources. Reason: the highest official in the department, who in this capacity directs the administration and is primarily responsible for the protection of employees, seems to no longer support the management of the new supervisory magistrate, who took office on June 1. To be precise: he is not “directly in the eye of the storm”, but has a very hard time experiencing what his subordinates have to put up with, explains a senior official: “He does not want to endorse or be responsible for this crushing machine. »

Clearly, “the big cleanup” continues, adds a well-informed source, referring to a previous article in Temps in which several sources depicted a delicate situation in terms of human resources. If the discussions remain informal for the moment, the government should also look into the fate of Adrien Bron, Director General of Health. Let us also remember that the cantonal doctor Aglaé Tardin, another key element of the department, went on sick leave at the beginning of December. She would not have returned to work. Appointed by Mauro Poggia, she took office in the middle of the pandemic, in May 2020.
