in a forum published in Le Monde dated 18 February 2011, Francois Chereque Martial Garcia and call Francois Fillon and Xavier Bertrand "a start" over the situation "explosive" employment center.
employment center has been almost three years. It was designed to simplify the job seeker's path and avoid duplication of efforts with the Assedic for registration and compensation, and with the ANPE for monitoring and research support for employment. This idea of simplification is entirely appropriate to the CFDT. Recall that these two institutions were very different in their histories, their work and their cultures.
Since the creation of employment center, the world has experienced a crisis God, who has not spared our country: the number of unemployed has increased by 1 million between mid-2008 and late 2010, it is considerable. Unemployment continues to rise. Even if this flow were to diminish in the coming months, the fact remains that hundreds of thousands of job seekers have their duration of unemployment increased, and employment center has to accompany them in life. This greatly disturbs the organization of this structure and work of its staff.
In this transformation process, trade unions and employers are heavily involved. By agreement negotiations unemployment insurance, they decide the rules unemployment compensation.
Moreover, the law requires that 10% of contributions to unemployment insurance to help finance the operation of the employment center. This provides an important responsibility to the social partners, which must guarantee the proper use of that money.
The other pillar of the financing of employment center is the contribution of the state, which decides its participation each year. Now it is withdrawing the last two years, and this leads to a dead end employment center.
Worse, the funding of thousand jobs transferred from the Association for Vocational Training (AFPA) to the employment center has not been taken supported, and 1800 posts have been deleted.
The results of the survey conducted by the CFDT unemployed to make us sound the alarm.
The unemployed themselves globally as well received in the agencies, but the quality of services is less acclaimed. Without fiscal restraint consistent with the needs leads to reorganization of employment center, which in terms of job applicants and agents did not make much sense.
reorganizations ignore the fact that the calculation of compensation is complicated: the variety of employers, the estate jobs, short or reduced activities relate to a majority of the unemployed who come to their first registration. Yet when it comes to his subsistence income, the applicant needs an information and implementation of its compensation extremely reliable and fast.
The first interview for the project personalized access to employment is made upon registration. The next appointment is given to the unemployed four months later in a follow-up monthly customized without taking into account his personal circumstances!
The requirement that the job seeker to call the 3949, whenever he wants to have a contact, is lived hard by some. We are entitled to require a contact easier and more consistent with a counselor. Similarly, the unemployed convened several months later, under the personal follow-up group meetings to have the uncomfortable feeling of being discredited, reduced to the status of potential fraudsters.
From month to month, the growing dissatisfaction of both sides of the wicket. Unemployed workers and entangled, despite themselves, in a situation of frustration and unhappiness very important, with considerable risk of conflict. Budgetary decisions of state lead to the following absurdity On one side we have more unemployment, more long-term unemployed, no longer needs assistance, on the other, less staff, more work and accompanying reduction partnerships with external operators .
This attitude of the state borders on irresponsibility. We feel that our various interventions to policy makers or in instances where we are sitting politely listened without hearing. The state initiatives, to great fanfare, to display objectives contrary to reality, just add anger to anger.
Report General Inspectorate of Finance was commissioned in October 2010. Where is it, what are the findings and why do we hide?
The situation is serious. We expect the state steps up to the real situation of unemployment in our country. The aim of employment center can not be limited to being a public body that costs as little as possible.
employment center can be anything, we are convinced. His wealth is its internal skills and the desire of employees to do their work. The very high expectations vis-à-vis employment center turns into disappointment for the unemployed and discouragement for the staff.
We believe in a different future for employment center, serving job seekers. We call on the Prime Minister and Minister of Labour to start before it's too late.
Francois Chereque, secretary general of the CFDT and Martial Garcia, secretary general of the federation Social Welfare, Labour and Employment of the CFDT
