Around 160 rallies are planned across France as part of this call for mobilization launched in the public service.
The social front is expanding. After the taxis, the railway workers, the farmers who called for new mobilizations on December 9 and 10, or the retirees who marched on Tuesday, December 3, in many cities in France, to demand an increase in their pensions, many professions are preparing to make their anger heard this Thursday, December 5.
These are the broad outlines of the first disruptions announced.
A call launched in the public service
Several public service unions (CGT, CFDT, Unsa, FSU, CFE-CGC, Solidaires and FA-FP) called for a day of action and strike, protesting, in particular, against the plan to combat absenteeism civil servants.
Public sector agents are invited to meet in 160 cities in France.
Three measures do not pass: the increase from one to three waiting days for civil servants, the reduction from 100% to 90% of remuneration in the event of sick leave and the end of an aid bonus to the power of 'purchase. Among the demands also include an increase in the index point and a status for AESH (accompanying students with disabilities).
FO supports the movement, but did not join the call for a strike, favoring a repeat mobilization on December 10, 11 and 12, notably at the SNCF and in the ports.
Classes and canteens closed
Many primary and secondary teachers may not work this Thursday, according to the unions. The FSU-SNUipp even announces “nearly 65% of strikers” in primary education, denouncing “degraded working conditions, salaries at half mast and purchasing power which is only decreasing”. “In all departments, thousands of schools will be closed,” says the union, quoted by La Dépêche du Midi.
If your child's primary school teacher is on strike, you should have already been notified normally by the establishment.
In secondary education, teachers are not required, however, to declare themselves in advance.
Many school canteens will also be impacted by the movement.
The SUD union has also filed a strike notice which will extend from November 21 to January 20, 2025 for “all staff working in schools, services and educational establishments”, it specifies in Le Parisien .
Hospitals, town halls, taxes, municipal police…
The strike will also affect to varying degrees the early childhood sector, town halls (up to municipal police), tax services, but also hospitals, even if the reception of patients should not be affected by the movement .
Mobilization in the energy sector
The CGT, CFE-CGC, CFDT and FO have called on “all companies in the electricity and gas sector” to mobilize from this Wednesday, December 4 at 9 p.m.
But, according to a union representative from CFE-Energies, cited by France Info, the mobilization should not have too visible consequences for the public.
