The Ministry of Labor presented the ideas he explores to create the future public employment service, some of which arouse the concern of the social partners and the departments.
By Thibaud Métais
The contours of the future public employment service are gradually taking shape. The Ministry of Labor presented its first “tracks of proposals” about France Work during the second “committee of stakeholders”, Tuesday, November 8, a month and a half after the first. Partners, local communities, associations and employment players therefore know a little more about what is potentially awaiting them. And, about a month before the end of the prefiguration mission, departments and unions share their concerns and their reserves on several aspects.
The High Commissioner for Employment, Thibaut Guilluy, in charge of this preparatory phase, shared the ideas explored for the creation of France Work, which must reform the public employment service by reorganizing its various actors around ‘A one -stop shop to improve the orientation of job seekers. A dozen local experiments will be launched in early 2023 for a deployment of the system a year later.
The project aims in particular to improve support for unemployed people, especially the most distant from the job market. In addition to the project to reform the active solidarity income (RSA) to condition it at fifteen hours of activity, the campaign promise of Emmanuel Macron, the government seeks, according to a working document that Le Monde was able to consult , to improve services with a “response time in forty-eight hours” and “emergency meetings”. “Offers of structuring solutions (subsidized contracts) in sufficient volume throughout the territory” could thus be proposed as well as “reinforced partnerships with private people”, such as associations.
“Our vocation is not to sanction them “
The social partners nevertheless called for vigilance on this question of support since unemployment insurance plays a role in that of job seekers registered with Pôle Emploi. However, a negotiation must soon open up to the governance of Unédic, the joint body that manages the system. “We must not put the cart before the oxen and there are several of us to have arrested the High Commissioner to ask that the governance of unemployment insurance will be discussed before anything else,” warns Denis Gravouil, of the CGT. “The prefiguration document presented in December should not preempt negotiations on governance,” it adds on the side of the CFDT.
