Although few measures affecting personal finances come into force this Wednesday, May 1, key deadlines will however occur throughout the month.
May 1: increase in the minimum salary for home-based employees
An increase in the minimum salary of home-based employees, the second since the start of 2024, applies from May (for salaries paid at the end of May), following negotiations between the social partners.
In detail, the level 1 employee on the salary scale, without sector certification (occasional babysitter, family job without training, etc.), must be paid at least 12 euros gross (9.22 euros net) per hour instead of 11.75 euros (excluding paid leave). It is 12.26 euros gross (instead of 12.01 euros) for childcare at home without professional qualifications (level 3).

Employees of private employers “are now paid 3% above the minimum wage for level 1 of the scale, and this principle is sustainable since it is included in the amendment to the collective agreement negotiated in January”explains Sigried Debruyne, statutory and social dialogue president of the Federation of Individual Employers of France.
As for the hourly salary of the childminder, it increases from 3.45 euros to 3.50 euros gross, and from 3.59 euros to 3.64 euros with a “professional title” (per child welcomed, excluding paid leave and excluding maintenance allowance and meal costs).

An increase in the rate of the conventional employer contribution for professional training, from 0.40% to 0.70%, also appears on the pay slips relating to the month of April. “It will make it possible to carry out additional training operations and make up for the drop in training departures linked to the reduction in training budgets occurring in mid-2023”says Ms. Debruyne.
May 1: slight increase in the “benchmark” price of gas
The average benchmark selling price of natural gas (PRVG) increased for May, by 1.4% compared to April, to 111.19 euros including tax per megawatt hour (MWh). It includes fixed (subscription) and variable portions, for cooking/hot water and heating consumers connected to the GRDF network. In question, a “slight increase in wholesale market prices of natural gas, which had been falling since the end of 2023”notes the Energy Regulatory Commission (CRE).
Published every month by the CRE since the abolition of regulated gas prices in mid-2023, this benchmark price aims to help consumers compare offers. This is’“an average estimate of the costs borne by suppliers for the supply of natural gas to a residential customer”integrating “supply costs (on the wholesale market) and non-supply costs” (commercial, transport and storage costs, supplier remuneration, etc.).
