After Christmas, it’s Christmas again! One hundred euros gross per month or one thousand euros net per year, this is what employees of the city of Lyon will receive from the month of April. The increase concerns all 8,000 permanent agents, all categories combined: from the gardener to the police officer, including the municipal archaeologist and even the musicians in the auditorium.

“This is a very significant expense to relate to a budget of more than 700 million euros,” underlines Laurent Bosetti, deputy delegate for the promotion of public services. The France Insoumise elected official specifies that in Lyon, category C employees – that is to say those with the lowest salaries – represent 65% of the workforce.

The more expanded medico-social sector

If the New Years were significant this year, it is because today there is a need to restore the attractiveness of public service professions, observes the elected official: “In Lyon, around forty professions of the community (of the 250 identified) are in tension. We must create a shock of attractiveness! » But Lyon cannot act alone, warns Laurent Bosetti: “What I am demanding, like the unions, is an annual renegotiation of public sector salaries. »

To finance this increase of 100 euros gross per month, estimated at 10 million euros per year, the city had to draw on its savings: “There is this room for maneuver because there has been an increase of almost 10% in the property tax last year,” explains the Lyon elected official. The only exception in this system: professions in the medico-social sector (specialized territorial agents of nursery schools, childcare assistants, nurses, care assistants, etc.) whose incomes are among the lowest in the public service. They will receive more than the others, i.e. 125 euros gross per month.
