The day after a call for a day of interprofessional strike, scheduled for December 5, to challenge the pension reform, the government must propose to the social partners a working document of which The echoes got to know According to the economics daily, the government plans to postpone the application of the new regime.
Two tracks are possible and will be "subject to consultation". Push the entry into force to "later generations", or directly apply it only to "new entrants into the labor market". Nicknamed the "grandfather clause", this method ensures that only young people entering the workforce are affected by a reform. A calculation so that the majority of workers who want to go down the street no longer feel concerned.
The technique is directly inspired by the reform of the railway workers. Thus, to avoid paralyzing the country, the government removed the status enjoyed by SNCF agents only for newcomers.
