Schools, town halls, nurses... What disruptions can we expect for the strike this Tuesday, March 19?

“There will be a lot of strikers.” On the eve of the mobilization in the public service planned for Tuesday March 19, the general secretary of the CGT Sophie Binet expressed her confidence in the success of this pressure on the government, a few months before the Olympic Games, on which the union threatens a strike. The inter-union association, which brings together CGT, CFDT, FO, UNSA and Solidaires, calls for “general measures for salaries, in particular by revaluing the index point”, to “refuse to suffer a blank year in salary matters”.

So, what to expect? All civil servants are called to strike this Tuesday, with more or less direct consequences for the French. 24 hours into this day of protest, the unions have given little indication of the expected level of mobilization. In Paris, a demonstration will leave at 2 p.m. from Luxembourg.

According to Sophie Binet, it is especially in education that the strike could be the most important, with teachers in particular being very upset after the 700 million euros in budget cuts recently decided by the government. In several cities such as Lyon, Strasbourg, Villeurbanne or Metz, town halls have already announced that schools would be deprived of canteens. In certain cases, children may still be welcomed during the lunch break, with a picnic.

The mobilization could also lead to the closure of certain administrations open to the public. Some town halls have already warned that their civil status service would be closed for Tuesday.

At the hospital, nursing staff are also called to strike, accompanied by liberal nurses who should join the movement. Their union, Sniil, and the Collective of Angry Liberal Nurses called for a walkout on Tuesday to demand “the opening of negotiations, urgently, in order to find an agreement with the CNAM [National Health Insurance Fund] to compensate for the the impact of inflation by revaluing key letters” and “the opening of work on the recognition of the arduousness of our profession”.
