Unemployment insurance conditions could be tightened again, just one year after the last reform. The unions decry these new measures.

The government could tighten unemployment insurance conditions again. The objective is to make savings, just one year after the last reform. Alice Mary, an agricultural engineer looking for work, fears seeing her unemployment benefit period shortened, one of the avenues considered by the government. Léa Petitdemange, press officer retraining in the world of culture, fears even more decreasing allowances.

“A precariousness of employment” denounced by the unions

Matignon also plans to increase the CSG paid by the unemployed, which is lower than that of the active. These measures are criticized by the unions. “We will have more and more poor people, moreover the poverty rate in France continues to increase, a precariousness of employment”, fears Michel Beaugas, FO confederal secretary. These new rules could be imposed by the State in the spring, following negotiations with the unions on the employment of seniors.
