The LRM majority tabled in the Assembly on December 23 a bill transposing the national interprofessional agreement obtained between unions and employers.

Vigilant but not hostile, at this point. Most unions and employers are in this state of mind, after having read the proposed law (PPL) on health at work, tabled on December 23 by the deputies of La République en Marche (LRM). The parliamentarians behind this text had affirmed their desire to transpose into law the provisions of the national inter-professional agreement (ANI) that the social partners had finalized, two weeks earlier, on the subject. This is why the reaction of the representatives of employers and employees was watched with interest: do they find that the initiative of the majority group in the National Assembly respects the text which they have drawn up, almost unanimously, on their side? /
Elected from the North, Charlotte Parmentier-Lecocq was one of the main linchpins of the PPL, with the help of her colleague from Meurthe-et-Moselle, Carole Grandjean. Their goal is to transform an occupational health system deemed to be at the end of its rope: shortage of doctors specializing in this discipline, insufficient coordination of the multiple players involved in the system, insufficient coverage of the needs of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), etc.
One of the key ideas of M mes Grandjean and Parmentier-Lecocq is to engage in a “co-constructed approach, beyond partisan interests”, like the ‘indicates the explanatory memorandum to the bill. LRM parliamentarians as well as the social partners share the desire to focus on preventive actions and to strengthen cooperation between occupational health services and the public health system.
The legislative text therefore takes again the innovations introduced by the ANI: introduction of a “prevention passport” certifying that the employee has followed training in occupational health, creation of “cells” responsible for preventing “professional withdrawal” … In some respects, the PPL goes further. An example: to promote the exchange of information between occupational physicians and town physicians, the former will be able to have access to the employee’s shared medical file.
Lack of ambition
Several unions believe that the bill reflects “the spirit of the ANI”, in the words of Catherine Pinchaut (CFDT). However, this is an “impression” after a first scan of the text: some points need to be “checked”, in the eyes of the cédétiste manager, in particular on the training offered to elected staff when they are returned to their position. mandate.
