Mini-earthquake at EDF. Employees were called to the polls from November 6 to 13 to elect their staff representatives. According to our information, the CGT, the leading union organization within the company since 1946, lost its crown to the CFE-CGC. The latter won the election with 33.08% of the votes, compared to 30.31% for the Montreuil subsidiary. Followed by the CFDT (17.45%), Force Ouvrière (15.5%) and Unsa Énergie (2.07%).
The CFE-CGC gained 4.48 points compared to the previous election held in 2019, while the CGT lost 3.86 points.
Soon fewer CGT representatives in employee organizations
This result signals the loss of influence of the CGT within EDF, which began a good decade ago. Take a look at the decline: in 2007, Sophie Binet’s comrades received 46.5%; in 2010, 42%; in 2013, 37.5% and so on until the end of his all-powerful reign. Note that this fall mainly benefited the CFE-CGC, the preferred organization of executives. This also reflects a demographic change within EDF, with more and more executives there.
Direct consequence of this change of king: until 2027, the CGT will occupy fewer positions within employee representative organizations, will lose activist positions within social organizations, and above all will direct less internal social debates on the conditions of work, organizational developments or even safety rules.
