Frédéric Souillot was the guest of “La matinale” on franceinfo, on Friday January 17.
-For Frédéric Souillot, “pension reform is the marker”. “What gave the result in the legislative and European elections was the pension reform passed by 49.3 and which was never voted on”declares the general secretary of Force Ouvrière on franceinfo, Friday January 17.
The trade unionist is categorical: “We do not have downward demands”. Today, he will go to Matignon, for consultations between unions and the government, for a single objective. “We are still calling for the repeal of this pension reform. We will go to the consultation this morning to again ask for the repeal of this pension reform”he said.
“Raising the starting age is not the solution. It never has been. We must increase the employment rate of seniors and ask for the transposition of the agreements signed last year. We have the lowest rate employment of 55-64 year olds across the entire OECD If we increase it by 10 points, that’s 30 billion in the coffers in 2030.”explains Frédéric Souillot.
