“The method changes radically“, estimated on July 12 on franceinfo the national secretary of the CFDT Yvan Ricordeau, after the meeting in Matignon between unions and employers to agree on a social agenda.
“It was the trade unions and employers’ organizations that imposed their agenda“, underlined the national secretary of the reformist union. An atmosphere unlike that of the month of April when, in the midst of the pension crisis, the unions had been received together by Élisabeth Borne, and had shortened the meeting after asking the withdrawal of the reform.
“During the pension reform, we had a prime minister and a government that told us exactly how we had to move forward on the file, so there was nothing to negotiate“, explained Yvan Ricordeau.
The calendar will be “very dense” at the start of the school year
The question of the employment of seniors, the prevention of professional wear and tear, support for professional retraining, the universal time savings account were notably on the menu. “The CFDT had important demands to prioritize the issues of work and employment of seniors, who were the great forgotten of the pension reform“, he clarified.
The one who succeeded to the post of national secretary to Marylise Léon, promoted to the head of the CFDT, stressed that the social calendar was going to be “very dense” in September. “From the beginning of September, there will be negotiations on supplementary pensions. There will be a meeting on unemployment insurance, in discussion with the Ministry of Labour. And just after, in September-October, we will open several months of negotiations on employment issues“, detailed Yvan Ricordeau.
