Summary WEAPON What has changed since the 1st of June terms and Conditions and demand Compensation Work and telework Training, and unemployment Leave paid Special Retirement employers

[updated June 12, 2020 at 09h51] questions on the future of the part-time unemployment, and the new device that should see the light of day on the 1st July, are many. The technical unemployment, said "classic", allows companies to pay compensation to their employees, a portion of which is supported by the State. It has been adapted since mid-march, to extend the number of beneficiaries. Since the 1st of June, it was revised in order to encourage the recovery (read more below). Another plan of part-time workers, called "reduced activity for continued employment" or the FIREARM must then take over. Two aspects, which are currently discussed with the social partners. According to the information of the newspaper The Echoes, of the arbitration of the president of the Republic should be made on the 23rd or 24th of June next. Several trails are on the table for the standard system and the new, you said :

About the current system : the compensation received by the employee could be revised downward. , It is estimated at only 70 to 72% of the net wage( or 60% of the gross), compared with 84% at the present time. Note : this rate could increase "with the amount of time spent in part-time workers," said the economic daily. The support of the State, it also would decrease : 20% of the load would be provided by the employer. As a reminder, it reached 100% in the limit of 4.5 times the Minimum wage in the framework of the health crisis, a part which has been revised to 85% since the 1st of June. The social security contributions, they would be reintroduced. The mechanism of reduced activity for the maintenance of the employment or WEAPON might take four semesters : it can only be done by agreement or unilateral decision of the management. What about the volume of support ? According to the daily, the government could maintain the current level. Counterparties will be required to preserve jobs. According to the information of the Echos, the ministry suggests that the aid would be higher than those granted in the framework of the unemployment technique. "Instead of firing, while the world remains and is lower part-time work and the State, through the activity part, compensate for a loss of purchasing power, so that the employees are not losing , and that the company can continue to keep the skills [through negotiation in business]", he explained Muriel Pénicaud.

The president of the Medef, has called for Thursday, figures "reliable" on the part-time unemployment prior to any revision of the device, reports the AFP, the government has communicated during the crisis on the number of requests and not the number of people actually covered by this mechanism. For his part, Laurent Berger of the CFDT considers that the revision of the partial unemployment must not lead to a decline of support for the employees. "If it is question of lowering the support for the workers in the weeks and months to come, this is folly!", he indicated at a "great debate" organized by the Association of journalists of social information (Sjia). "This will be socially extremely brutal, completely counter-intuitive with the idea of the revival of consumer spending we are talking about these days".

Concretely, companies faced with an activity that is reduced will decrease by agreement with the trade unions working time, moderate wage, provided that it maintains fully the job, with help from the State which will complement to make up a portion of the loss of purchasing power", she continued. What about the employees ? It should see a decrease in their income, as in the framework of technical unemployment current, they will be compensated.
