“There is no delay, we will be there! After the Minister of Labor, Olivier Dussopt, his cabinet drives the point home on the operational progress of the pension reform. Under pressure to put to music a reform rejected by the unions – who have called for a new day of action across France on June 6 and are pinning their hopes on the examination of the proposal of the Liot group, on June 8, which could bury the whole reform — the government has no room for error. But time is running out.
As written in the text of the law published in the Official Journal on April 14, the major overhaul of the rules will come into force on September 1. “Our services are fully mobilized”, we are assured rue de Grenelle, where the minister’s entourage specified during a briefing that the 31 implementing texts of the reform supposed to give instructions for use (i.e. 27 decrees and 4 orders) will be published before “the end of the summer”.
“There is a form of priority”
For the time being, only two decrees submitted to the various authorities for consultation (National Old Age Insurance Fund, Council of State, etc.) will be published “in the coming weeks” according to the ministry. They concern the age parameters (legal age), the contribution period, long careers in particular. “There is a form of priority” to first publish the texts “which condition the age of departure”, he indicates. The pension funds are waiting for them to set up the main changes and update the software in order to inform future retirees as quickly as possible.
Then will come the decrees concerning the closure of the main special regimes (RATP, electricity and gas industries, clerks and employees of notaries, Banque de France, Economic, Social and Environmental Council). Others will follow on professional wear and tear, prevention, new rights with the increase in the minimum pension for small pensions, or the accumulation of retirement employment and progressive retirement, open to private sector employees and civil servants. public. Finally, the additional quarters granted to volunteer firefighters, to former beneficiaries of community work… “All these texts are being drafted”, further affirm the minister’s services.
“No one” should return to work
As for the subject of employees already in early retirement and who would no longer be in the nails because of the changes in the contribution period and the extension of the legal age of departure, the Ministry of Labor affirms that “no person” should come back to work. “Companies are handling this very well. If these people are on end-of-career leave, they will know how to deal with it, ”we argue.
Regarding requests for cancellation of retirement for people who have already filed their liquidation file and will no longer fulfill the rules from September 1, Olivier Dussopt’s cabinet announces that it “is looking” a new calendar. Initially, the text provided for a period of two months to make the request from the publication of the decree. It will probably be postponed to the end of October. It’s “under investigation”.
The unions, who did not spare their criticism during the examination of the first two decrees by the National Old Age Insurance Fund, warned. At the slightest bug, at the slightest error, they will not fail to rush into the legal breach. A new battle they are preparing to fight as soon as the decrees are published. A strategy that does not seem to impress the government. “Once published, the appeals are not suspensive”, replies the entourage of Olivier Dussopt.
