Employees of the long career scheme, i.e. who started working before the age of 21, will not have to contribute more than 43 years old to retire once they have reached the retirement age. anticipated required, announced Tuesday Elisabeth Borne, in a new concession to the right.
As soon as the age of early departure is reached, the reform does not provide, for long careers, for a contribution period of more than 43 years, affirmed the Prime Minister during the session of questions to the government, in response to the deputy The Republicans Vronique Louwagie.
In the initial project, some long-career employees had to contribute at age 44, in particular those who started working between the ages of 16 and 18.
This principle of contribution for a maximum of 43 years will be included in a government amendment to be tabled on Tuesday which already extended the long career system to those who started working between the ages of 20 and 21. This last point had already been the subject of an initial development in response to LR’s requests.
In its reform project, the government promised that no one would be forced to work for more than 44 years. From now on, no employee in a long career will be obliged to contribute more than 43 years old when two other conditions are met: having reached the required early departure age and having worked 4 or 5 quarters before a certain age, specified Elisabeth Borne .
In the evening, the deputy LR Aurlien Pradi, at the forefront of this subject, made a point of order in the hemicycle, to ask if those who started at 16 and 18 will leave well with 43 years (of contributions) and not 44.

The Minister of Labor Olivier Dussopt replied that the duration of contributions required for long careers is a decree, not the law. Each political group wishing to do so will be associated with the drafting of the decree, he promised, leaving the deputies unsatisfied.
The head of government also felt that it was not yet too late for the blocking amendments from the left on the pension reform project to be withdrawn.
It is not yet too late for the blocking amendments to be withdrawn, allowing a real substantive debate, a frank but never insulting debate, and to renounce excesses, declared the Prime Minister, while there are still around 14,000 amendments examine this text by Friday evening.
