The CPME expressed satisfaction tinged with vigilance on Friday the day after the presentation of a parliamentary report with 14 proposals on administrative simplification, which will feed into a bill eagerly awaited by businesses by the summer.
The proposals of the report, led in particular by Louis Margueritte, Renaissance deputy for Saône-et-Loire, “correspond for the most part to the 80 measures to put an end to administrative complexity” published in January by the Confederation of small and medium-sized enterprises, welcomes this one.
She welcomes the proposal to “decriminalize the level of sanction in the event of failure in good faith to comply with the reporting obligations of managers”. “This measure, requested for months by the CPME, would be a sign of confidence in the entrepreneurial world,” she underlines in a press release.
She also welcomes the proposal for an “electronic safe” which would centralize information on companies and avoid them having to send the same document to several administrations. “But does it really take two years to put it in place? » she asks herself.
She welcomes the proposal aimed at raising the thresholds for the number of employees for the various corporate obligations, “a simple and effective measure likely to boost business growth”.
But she warns against “allowing companies less than 5 years old and less than 50 employees to define with employees the application of certain provisions of sector agreements”. “This measure could recreate a threshold effect and potentially turn against the companies concerned,” underlines the CPME.
While the Minister of Enterprise Olivia Grégoire said on Thursday that she was very favorable to the possibility of “testing” the new laws concerning companies on them before adopting them, the CPME wants this to pass by law.
Finally, she would have liked it to be “purely and simply” prohibited from overtransposing European texts, or even to be able to “go back in time by detransposing”.
This is “a fifteenth measure that must be added at a time when our companies are going to suffer a veritable administrative tsunami by being required to put in place extra-financial reporting (CSRD) comprising no less than 1,000 indicators,” estimates -she.
