“There is obvious and legitimate fed up.” Fawzi Benabdallah, FO union delegate and employee of the Auchan supermarket in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine was mobilized, alongside his colleagues on Friday March 29, in response to the national strike call from the inter-union. In their sights? The Mandatory Annual Negotiations (NAO), which gave rise to a disagreement between management and union representatives. “The Auchan company is offering us 1.3% (salary increase, editor’s note), we consider that this is contemptuous because it does not correspond at all to inflation,” underlines Fawzi Benabdallah. Colleagues have great difficulty making ends meet.” They were not the only ones to mobilize on this day of March 29: the employees of the Plaisir store and the Trappes depot were also concerned. While in Buchelay, they proclaimed their disagreement the previous week, on Friday March 22.
Beyond the NAO, unions have shown their hostility towards working conditions. “Today, we ask colleagues to have two roles, to work on two distinct shifts: they would start in the morning at 5 or 7 a.m. and then take a second shift, they will no longer be in a specific sector,” explains Fawzi Benabdallah . We can easily imagine the reason: Auchan is no longer recruiting.” Élodie, coordinator within the Conflanese brand, paints an edifying picture of the situation of some of her colleagues. “The problem that arises is that a departure is not replaced, colleagues are exhausted, some even leave with the firefighters because they can’t take it anymore,” she relates. We are caught by the throat, and by dint of pulling on the rope, there are psychosocial risks, and it becomes very difficult to be able to juggle between your private and professional life.”
A situation which contrasts with the group’s recent news: as Fawzi Benabdallah recalls, the Auchan group has just bought 98 Casino stores throughout France. “With this purchase of Casino, the main shareholder puts billions into a structure, still takes over more than 70 supermarkets and 20 hypermarkets, but has no money for the employees? »
