The FO and CFDT unions of LCL, a subsidiary of Crédit Agricole SA, on Friday called on employees to strike on Tuesday January 17 to demand wage increases and improved working conditions.
Denouncing in a press release an extreme avarice, FO and the CFDT, respectively 2nd and 3rd unions of the bank, are offended by the refusal of the management to grant a general increase for 2023 after the 2.9% on average obtained in July, a level well below inflation, say the unions.
As for the value-sharing bonus, despite the possibility of paying up to 6,000 euros, LCL is content to allocate 1,200 euros for compensation below 30,000 euros, 1,000 euros for compensation below 40,000 euros, 600 euros for compensation below 50,000 euros, and 500 euros for compensation less than 90,000 euros, denounces the inter-union, which claim that resignations are increasing and that the bank has great difficulty recruiting.
Degraded working conditions
It is not with such wage measures that it will work out, conclude the two unions. The SNB, the first union at LCL which is not a member of the intersyndicale, however invited in a press release the employees to express (their) dissatisfaction by participating in the social movement of January 17, judging that the measures remain insufficient with regard to the LCL results and degraded working conditions.
