This Monday, the traffic of the Corsica Linea boats should be normal. In any case, this is what Pascal Trojani, the CEO of the company, assures, despite a notice filed at least in November, which provided for a 48-hour strike on December 13 and 14. ” Social dialogue within Corsica Linea has always been very important. During the weekend, the discussions moved forward. For today (Monday), the boats will sail normally, and for tomorrow (Tuesday), discussions continue. “
The trade unionists demand, in particular, the withdrawal of the Net Wage device or net salary, “that is to say a diversion of social contributions and taxes which legitimizes the end desired by the government of our particular system”, pointed out the CGT. A device from which Corsica Ferries benefits “to do social dumping”, deplores the sailors. They are also asking for the registration of all Corsica Linea vessels and sailors in the French flag 1st register within the framework of the strategic fleet decree, the implementation of a DSP (public service delegation) for freight and passengers of twelve years with eight large capacity vessels. Accompanied by this, a ten-year fleet renewal plan and the establishment of floor prices for freight and passengers.
Finally, the CGT is asking for recourse against Corsica ferries to recover subsidies granted by the transport office, ie more than two hundred million euros.
