Woerth defends decree on the mobility of officials

11th February 2010

Minister of Budget, Public Accounts and Public Administration, ?ric Woerth formally on Thursday at the High Council of State Civil Service Decree controversial mobility agents.

LE FIGARO. – What this decree on mobility will he?

Eric Woerth. – Simply apply the law passed last summer after much consultation! For officials, it will provide real career paths: a government can no longer retain an agent who found a job that interested in another jurisdiction, and it will lose more pay or seniority changing job …

Meanwhile, we are reforming the administration in depth. Services are merged, computerization is progressing: the final positions disappear.For staff whose post was abolished, the law "mobility" obliges the administration to make them three real proposals and to train them if they need while maintaining their full salary. If he refuses, the officer may be placed on standby, after consulting the Joint Administrative Committee (PAC) which comprises unions. Three new offers made on it. If he still refuses, he may be fired after a new shift in CAP.

Unions speak of a "provocation" …

This is not a red flag, but rather a white flag! The future procedure is far less brutal than the current established by the Government Mauroy. When an item is removed today, the official must accept the first assignment given to him. If he refuses, he is regarded as having abandoned his post and removed frames. He loses his rights to unemployment benefits.The rule is so harsh that it is rarely enforced.

The administration therefore pays workers who no longer work?

Twenty layoffs barely held each year for this reason. So, yes, people – especially managers – are paid when their post was deleted. It is acceptable to anyone.

Officials fear being forced to relocate or accept a position unrelated to their skills. What assurances can you give them?

The nurse turned into a sports teacher, is a cartoon! The law provides that the jobs offered will reflect the professional competence of residence and family status of the official guaranteed payday loans . The employer must meet these criteria, with review of the Joint Administrative Committee. And the agent will always go to court if he believes violated the law.The law will be applied to the quality of offers but also the consequences of six straight refusal. I reject both the caricature and the angelic being official, it is a status with rights and duties, including ensuring continuity of public service.

Seven of eight civil servants' organizations boycotted Thursday's meeting. Is this a sign of social tension?

I will chair this meeting, open to everyone to come in today – the crisis, but also the regional approach. The dialogue, at least, remains friendly, dense and direct association between unions and me. The evidence we have signed several landmark agreements, the latter again in November on the health and working conditions. Six of the eight organizations have also signed in mid-2008, a major text that redefines the union representativeness and establishes the principle of majority agreement.A slot is provided for the Assembly in late March to transpose it into law. As for officers directly involved in the reorganization, some feel, it's true concerns. This is normal because we are real reform! For us to respond by taking better account of human realities and providing clear career prospects.

Nicolas Sarkozy spoke on TF1 tenure of contract. Will you work there?

We will settle the issue this year. There are normal situations: people with CSD because they meet occasional needs or those who have chosen a permanent, sometimes better paid than the incumbents. And there are clearly abusive situations: people with recurrent CDD or CDI "sustained" on sustainable positions for no reason not to be tenured. These are cases that we review.The challenge is both financially – these people are already paid by the state – human. We must especially see how their establishment may involve the recognition of their experience. It makes no sense to send them the same competitions as external candidates as they have been working for the State.
