The decision to make a statement is, they say, motivated by the absence of a written response to the inter-union communication in December: “There were still municipal councils, social and territorial committees (1). We could have resolved this internally.”
The demands focus on increasing the number of meal vouchers, revaluing the function allowance, subject and expertise allowance (IFSE) or the annual indemnity supplement (CIA), improving working conditions, and increasing health insurance coverage for the two local authorities. Classic.
“Sprinkling”? “The local public service operates every day thanks to the commitment of the staff, regardless of the political events,” the duo reminds, denouncing “sprinkling.” This public “outing” by two unions on the eve, or almost, of the first round does not provoke reactions from the mayor and president of the Agglomeration, Gérard Régnier, that he prefers to keep to himself.
Instead, the elected official communicates the list of measures taken by the municipality during the mandate. The consideration of night work availability, “considered to have the strongest consequences on health,” is the most recent and only a first step. It follows the implementation of the Rifseep (income regime taking into account functions, subjects, expertise, and professional commitment) on January 1, 2023, the index-linked treatment increase (by five points) for all agents since January 2024, the exceptional purchasing power bonus voted in April 2024, the “depreciation” plan, etc.
