After the validation of the main part of the reform, the executive is already thinking about what to do next. In a press release, the government says it wants “from now on to continue consulting” with the social partners “to give more meaning to work, improve working conditions and achieve full employment.”
“This decision marks the end of the institutional and democratic progress of this reform,” also writes the government that wants to turn the page.
For unions, “the fight continues”
On the side of the unions, which reacted to the announcement of the Constitutional Council, the story is different. Asked about BFM Business, the president of the CFTC, Cyril Chabanier, considered it “unlikely” that the inter-union will agree to meet with the President of the Republic on Tuesday, when the law will be promulgated on Monday.
“We still have to talk to each other a bit, but there is very little chance that we will go there. It is not appropriate to go on Tuesday, because the fight for pensions continues.”
Simon Duteil, general co-delegate of the Solidaires union indicated that it is a “legal response. The bottom of the unfair and brutal reform remains.”
The trade unionist specified: “we continue our mobilization to achieve the withdrawal. We are not going to turn the page”
