Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne tried to satisfy the right, Tuesday, February 14, by reducing the contribution period for certain long careers. A gesture that was not enough to convince all the Republicans.
Did Elisabeth Borne make the decisive gesture to obtain the full support of the right on the pension reform? She has just made a first surprise announcement, Tuesday, February 14, on long careers. This concerns those who started working at 17 years old. In the initial reform, they had to contribute for 44 years. From now on, it will be 43 years. Concretely, a person who started working at the age of 17 will work for 43 years and can leave in retirement at age 60.
For some LRs, the account is not there
The opening is mostly addressed to the Republicans, because the presidential majority needs their votes to pass the text. “We can say that there is definite progress, which also concerns a large number of people. I think we can congratulate ourselves and rejoice“, says Véronique Louwagie, LR deputy for Orne. But for some LRs, the account is still not there because for people who started working at 14 or 16, the contribution period will be 44 years.
