The employers’ union U2P, which represents craftsmen and liberal professions, highlighted the subjects of end of career and professional wear and tear during a meeting with Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne, explained a spokesperson to the AFP.
Interesting moment, the 1h30 interview allowed Jean Christophe Repon, vice-president of the Union of local businesses (U2P), to make the voice of human-sized business owners heard (…) on subjects importance such as end of career, professional wear and tear.
The U2P representative also told AFP of discussions around the work life pact, dear to the Prime Minister. A bill, after negotiations between unions and employers, should be tabled at the end of the year or at the beginning of 2024, according to Matignon.
Discuss senior employment
The government’s desire to put the social partners back at the heart of the debate seems sincere and sincere, continued Mr. Repon, now we will have to find with the trade unions the three or four negotiations that we can engage in following the three that we have already succeeded.
With the other employers’ unions, we will have subjects of convergence and we will surely have some tensions, he added. Geoffroy Roux de Bzieux, who is about to hand over to the head of the Mouvement des entreprises de France (Medef), said he was ready on Monday to discuss the employment of seniors and the provisions censured by the Constitutional Council.
The Confederation of Small and Medium Enterprises (CPME) had for its part put back on the table its proposal to exempt seniors from 57 years of unemployment insurance contributions.
