This day of action was endorsed Tuesday night by the main trade unions of the public hospital service (FO, SUD, Unsa and CGT) and by the collective of caregivers, including Inter-Hospital and Inter-Emergency department, indicated to the AFP a number of these organizations. It will take place two weeks after the “day of action” on 16 June, which brought several tens of thousands of demonstrators across France (180.000 according to the Collective Inter-hospitals), of which 18,000 persons on the esplanade des Invalides in Paris, according to the prefecture of police.

The CGT and SUD are planning already another day of protest on 14 July, but this proposal does not have unanimous support among the unions. The government has planned to pay tribute to the caregivers in this day of national celebration, where the traditional military parade will be replaced by a ceremony on the place de la Concorde.

No envelope yet on the table

The trade unions call for a “revaluation of wages” of at least 300 euros net per month for the hospital staff, but also a “recruitment plan”, a “training plan” and “the judgment of all the closures of institutions, services and beds.” On Friday, a draft memorandum of agreement has been given to the unions, providing for “a revaluation base as of 1 July”, through an “enhancement index” for all officers of the public service hospital (excluding physicians), which are the subject of a negotiation parallel.

But no budget has been put on the table by the executive, to the chagrin of the unions mobilised in the framework of the Segur of health”, who have been demanding for several weeks with an estimate of compensation measures promised by the government.

A new meeting dedicated to the careers and remuneration is scheduled for Wednesday at the ministry of Health. This meeting should take place in the presence of the minister of Health Olivier Véran, according to several trade unions, who hope to obtain clarification of the budget. The Segur of health, launched on may 25 by Edouard Philippe, and led by the former head of the CFDT, Nicole Notat, must implement by mid-July the “massive plan” promised by Emmanuel Macron, in order to improve the lives of caregivers and the care of the sick.
