Unemployment in France fell slightly in the second quarter of 2022, with a decline of 0.8% for category A, that is to say those who exercise no activity. The explanations of Sophie Lançon, on the set of 19/20 Wednesday July 27.
In the second quarter of 2022, the unemployment rate is 7%. With fewer unemployed, the government plans to review the compensation rules. “The Minister of Labor mentioned several avenues on the table. First, the duration of compensation. Today, it is two years maximum for unemployed people under 53. It could therefore be reduced. Another option: the degression of compensation”explains Sophie Lançon, on the set of 19/20 Wednesday July 27.
Another track, inspired by Canada, goes even further, by modeling the duration and the amount of the compensation, according to the unemployment rate. The government is planning a discussion on the subject in the fall with the social partners. “According to my information, the employers seem rather favorable to this track. The unions, they are sounding the alarm and fear that job seekers be the big losers”concludes the journalist.
