At the call of the intersyndicale des services des Impôts (Solidaires, FO, CGT, CFDT and CFTC), Moselle agents observed a strike on Monday in order to demand a moratorium on cash closures. In Moselle, the current restructuring plans in fact provide for the regrouping by January 2024 of all services – or the establishment of reception points – in Thionville, Forbach, Sarreguemines, Metz, Sarrebourg, Saint-Avold and Hayange. “In ten years, half of the quarantine of the treasuries of the department closed and we went from 2,450 positions to less than 1,200”, deplores Philippe Ostrogorski on behalf of the inter-union. A movement that the health crisis does not seem to have slowed down, quite the contrary. “The massive restructuring plans have started again: closure of Freyming-Merlebach on September 1, 2021, transfer of SIP-SIE from Hayange to Thionville, closure of Fontoy and Thionville 3 borders with transfer to SGC in Hayange, closure of Faulquemont and Creutzwald with transfer to SGC Saint-Avold, closure of Château-Salins with transfer to SGC Sarrebourg in 2022. “

Zealous administration
A reduction in the system that staff consider all the more worrying as it occurs concomitantly with the pandemic. What an agent summed up the other day with a formula reported by Philippe Ostrogorski: “Before, we did our work from A to Z, today we do it from A to N”. The person concerned points out, for example, the workload linked to the transfer at the beginning of the year of the hospital part of the Saverne treasury to the Sarrebourg site. The same takes note of “the suspension of at least one year” of the Dieuze site. After the closures of the treasuries of Fontoy, Faulquemont, Château-Salins on January 1, 2022, it will be early 2023 the turn of those of Dieuze, Thionville, Creutzwald.
In addition to the pause in the restructuring plan, the unions demand a halt to “precariousness” and are indignant at the zeal of the administration pinned down by the Court of Auditors: “In its report on the state of the DGFiP , magistrates find that jobs have been “stolen”. In fact, our CEO has cut 6,111 jobs in 3 years instead of the 5,230 jobs planned. The court also writes that € 118.9 million in personnel costs were taken from colleagues. At the Moselle level, after the publication of the B and C transfer movements, there is a deficit of 13 category B and 15 category C positions (without taking part-time work into account). That is to say an understaffing of 2.7% in B and 4.7% in C ”.
