CE extraordinary 11 May dealt a single point: the surrender of Lille. Some reminders about the context:
Lille, declared unprofitable, initially announced as "consolidated" at Niort in the EC in December 2009, will be transferred. After months of questions and concerns, Lille meet the potential buyer. The exchange is positive, the positive impression.
An initial document, very "light" is given to the EC in January.
Politicians question the direction in the proceedings, classic information - consultation. They want answers about the motivations, the consequences for both Lille for the rest of the company, in short, they try to do the job for which they were elected.
When EC meeting (another one) of 29 April, which happened in Lille, they adopt a first deliberation alerting management on the large gaps in the information received, and the impossibility of giving an opinion in the state. The opinion of the EC, we recall, is a prerequisite for signing the contract of assignment.
Before each CE, which starts around 13:00, the politicians find themselves more motivated in the morning to prepare for the meeting. May 11, they note again that management appears determined not to take seriously their repeated requests.
In Lille, the employees took their destiny: they announced a strike starting at the same time as the EC and forwarded a list of demands considered minimum (Guaranteed employment, compensation, etc.).. CGT and other unions to propose a joint statement to alert more solemnly management. CFDT joins, we will finalize all. GSC refuses and tells us: "If management requests a review, we give the Lille want this assignment, we do not block it."
The explanations do not help: the goal is not to block the sale but to secure for all concerned. Some employees concerned do not seem like such a transfer, or the legal basis on which management uses to enforce it at all does not - we must leave the choice to people, especially Parisians, who would stay. Questions as simple as "what is the formula for passing from 13 to 12 months for the payment of wages? "Have not received a response - it is a minimum anyway!
We ask to meet with the buyer to get online and just including the answers on how our colleagues will be incorporated in it - a systematic refusal of management, although this has still practiced in previous assignments, and without incident . While the buyer himself was willing to meet with the EC.
From 11/05/2010 The meeting begins. The motions to strike declaration of Lille, etc.. are read. A discussion was held on issues raised by the EC. On many occasions, management says "we'll find the answer to that question" or "we can not commit ourselves to the place of the buyer." The logic seems clear: the information is not complete. Yes, but the direction seems to know she will get a notice should it so request. It may start negotiations with Lille in a strong position. The Lille
not end up accepting a compromise. Direction pushes the advantage: the transaction must be sealed with a review of the EC. FOR, CGT and CFDT urging members to refuse to vote. Result: 7 votes, 5 refused to participate in the vote. For some voters, many years ago they did not stay too late at a meeting of EC ...
Management now has a free hand. It can even afford the luxury of further information (what happened to the May 20 EC) while the notice is given, and without actually answer the questions!
During our visit to Lille on May 19, we met the employees relieved that things were going but worried because their claims were at least have become complete May 11 They are aware that a number of questions remain unanswered and that the EC has lost its leverage to get them and help them.
Our list is committed to supporting them in their efforts to get answers.
Note that during all the discussions, the perimeter regularly oscillated between BU81 agency and Lille. BU81 gathers all the employees and some non Lille Lille. For simplicity we have discussed in this text Lille but ultimately it is this that is concerned BU81.
