The CFTC announced Wednesday that it would not participate in the next two consultation meetings on pensions due to the disagreement on the issue that will be directed to it, the financing of social protection as a whole. “The CFTC Confederate Council decided not to go to the next two meetings” this Thursday and April 24, Pascale Coton, union representative for retirement consultation, told AFP.
The CFTC will then resume its place in the weekly discussion sessions, he said. “It is not correct” to discuss the financing of social protection as a whole, while two trade union organizations (FO and CGT) and an organization of employers (the U2P that represents the artisans) are no longer involved in the global discussion, said Pascale Coton.
This issue was not initially part of the road map set by the Bayroun government for the discussions of these “conclave” pensions. But the participants decided to add it to a new road map that approved last week, against the CFTC Council.
“An inventory”
The particular Medef wishes to question the financing of the social contributions of the family branch, or even the social security branch. It proposes to establish taxes for taxes, through CSG or Social VAT. Only pensions and the professional regime of accidents and occupational diseases must be financed by work -based contributions, believes.
A decision is not expected after these discussions, according to social partners. It is more about making “a diagnosis”, an “inventory” or “put in perspectives” for the future, explained last Thursday Yvan Ricordeau, the CFDT negotiator.
