The Minister of the Civil Service also announced that the bonus intended to compensate for inflation would not be paid.
No increase and no bonus for civil servants this year. The Minister of the Civil Service Guillaume Kasbarian confirmed the freezing of the value of the index point, the mechanism used to calculate the basic salary of civil servants, in 2024, this Friday, November 8 on RMC. He also announced the suspension of a bonus for the purchasing power of public agents, Gipa. This Individual Purchasing Power Guarantee is a sum normally intended to compensate for inflation.
“The budgetary context does not allow us to increase the index point this year. It also does not allow us to increase and pay the Gipa bonus”declared Guillaume Kasbarian. Decisions which should not calm the anger of the unions: two of the main union organizations called a strike after a tense meeting on Thursday at the ministry, particularly in the face of the minister's refusal to abandon his predecessor's reform and to back down on the reduction of sick leave compensation and the extension of the waiting period. This question should appear on the agenda of a new meeting of the inter-union scheduled for Tuesday.
