Social anger: the Minister of Labor brings together an “exceptional salary monitoring committee” this Thursday
After the boost to the minimum wage, this meeting, which brings together trade union and employer organizations, is devoted to ways to increase all salaries.
The government is not finished with the salary issue. After announcing a boost to the minimum wage on Monday, November 9, the objective is now to look at the rest of the grid. To do this, the Minister of Labor, Jean-Pierre Farandou, announced this Thursday morning on RMC to bring together an “exceptional salary monitoring committee”.
This will be held this same day with trade union and employer organizations. The objective: to initiate a process which should lead to “wage dynamics”. On the question of remuneration, the executive is aiming for a three-step waltz.
Or rather “a three-stage rocket”, the minister metaphorized. The first floor took the form of Monday's announcements on the minimum wage. “A helping hand but also a boost,” assured the minister.
This should at the same time make it possible to increase social minimums in all professional sectors. A process on which the executive intends to influence to ensure that employers play the game. This is particularly the meaning of the committee meeting this morning.
Finally, the third stage will take place in the coming weeks, with the annual company negotiations (NAO) which determine the salary increases for next year. » READ ALSO - A jump of 31% in ten years: the inexorable rise of the minimum wage, or the risk of France's minimum wage reduction Cost reductions In recent days, employers have said all the bad things they think about the boost to the minimum wage and the government's pressure on wage increases. Between sluggish growth and the energy crisis, he emphasizes that the current situation is not conducive to salary increases.
On the other hand, the executive assures that it is aware of these difficulties and is ready to support these actors. “If the salary dynamic works well, we are ready at the start of next year to review the cost of labor,” assured Jean-Pierre Farandou. To do this, a review of reductions in charges would be on the table.
Still, the bill could be hefty for the public accounts, at a time when the deficit is already at record heights. This aid is already “70 billion euros covered by the State to reduce costs”, warned the Minister of Labor.
