Will the Olympic and Paralympic Games be disrupted by strikes in Paris transport? The CGT-RATP, the public transport union's leading union, has filed a strike notice running from February 5 to September 9, the organization announced on Monday, January 29. While unions and management are engaged in compulsory annual negotiations (NAO) and discussions on possible bonuses during the summer sporting events in Paris, the CGT-RATP noted a “disagreement”, in a letter sent to the CEO Jean Castex.
According to this missive, of which AFP obtained a copy, “the Management confirmed its arbitration which does not meet the expectations of the company's agents: 0.9% increase in a period of high inflation and on the eve of “a global challenge, which is to organize the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games”. According to the CGT, the management of the public transport company “still does not understand the perception that the agents have of this disdain towards them”.
Listing its demands, in particular a salary increase of 50 index points “for all” and indexation to inflation, but also negotiations to move to 32 hours of weekly work, the CGT files a strike notice running “from Monday February 5, 2024 at 7 p.m. to Monday September 9, 2024 at 8 a.m.” and covering “all RATP staff, in each category and in each service”. Contacted by AFP on Monday, RATP management did not wish to react.
On January 17, Jean Castex said he "firmly intends to continue to improve gradually in 2024, by the end of March, by the Games", in response to criticism made by the president of the Island Region. -de-France and the organizing authority Île-de-France Mobilités (IDFM) Valérie Pécresse on the lack of punctuality of Parisian transport. On January 23, RATP announced the launch of an ambitious recruitment campaign to improve the service, targeting 5,300 hires this year after 6,600 in 2023.
