Salaries of civil servants: the government announces a 1.5% increase in the index point on July 1

Fight again and again against the effects of inflation. While the level of prices remained quite high in May (5.1%, according to INSEE), despite stabilization, civil servants' unions had been mobilized and united for several months to demand a salary increase. Efforts that have borne fruit for the 5.7 million employees of the State, local authorities and hospitals. After receiving the organizations on Monday, the government announced a 1.5% increase in the index point for civil servants, which will come into effect on July 1. The first public service union, the CGT, which demanded a 10% increase in the index point, vilified a "largely insufficient" measure, estimating the loss of purchasing power at 16% since 2010.

All agents will also be awarded 5 points, corresponding to a flat-rate aid of 25 additional euros per month. Some of the civil servants - those whose gross monthly salary goes up to 3,250 euros - will also obtain, before the end of 2023, a degressive purchasing power bonus ranging from 800 to 300 euros. This measure concerns 50% of State agents and 70% of public hospital agents. A receptionist at the start of his career would earn a total of 182 euros per month more, and a school teacher with seven years of seniority 102 euros more, according to the ministry.

Public officials also obtained the renewal for 2023 of the individual purchasing power guarantee, an increase in mission expenses, better coverage of public transport subscriptions and an increase in the scale of monetization of time savings accounts. After the 3.5% increase in the index point last summer for a cost of 7.5 billion euros, these new measures amount to 3.5 billion euros.
