Dominique Carlac’h was the guest at the opening of the Good Evening Business program on Monday night. Medef’s vice president addressed in particular the reform of unemployment insurance and hiring as a current priority for business leaders. Although employers have long been in favor of extending the working day, his spokesperson raised the issue of employment of the elderly, which could be one of the levers to reduce the unemployment rate in France.
End-of-career management for companies will be improved
This position of Dominique Carlac’h to encourage the use of devices such as the accumulation of employment and retirement does not fail to echo the words of Olivier Dussopt in an interview granted to Point and published today. In addition to a high unemployment rate of 7.4%, employment in France has another specificity according to the Ministry of Labour: a particularly low employment rate among the youngest, those under 25, and the elderly, who have more than 50 years. “Therefore, we must work tirelessly to integrate young people and keep older adults in their jobs,” he told the weekly.
Olivier Dussopt recalled in the process the need for a pension reform and a debate around its modalities “on the question of the age or the duration of the contribution, as well as the pace of implementation”. Finally, he returned to the case of older workers by encouraging companies to examine the thorny issue of career endings.
