A few days before the resumption of consultations between the Ministry of Labor and the social partners, the Economic Analysis Council (CAE) on Tuesday published an explosive note on unemployment insurance. Signed by Pierre Cahuc, Stéphane Carcillo and Camille Landais, the document invites in particular to rethink an “ineffective” and “slightly pro-cyclical” regime, by adjusting the eligibility conditions and the duration of compensation according to economic activity. .
Governance would be reviewed. Social partners and the State would be in charge of the parameters of unemployment insurance and the organization of support for job seekers in a negotiating council for support and compensation for job seekers (Cnaid ). A High Council of Unemployment Insurance (HCA) would coordinate studies and evaluations “for a better development of these rules”.
But above all, the unemployment insurance budget would be integrated with that of Social Security. It would therefore leave the hands of the social partners to be entirely managed by the State, under the scrutiny of parliamentarians. A small revolution which may not be to everyone’s taste.
