Nothing of the sort of less formalized exists today

Unlike the report Virville very in line with the "social Refoundation" the Medef, the work of Messrs. Chertier and Haddas-Lebel are advanced significant, capable of advancing the social dialogue. The fact that, chronologically, the first was at the beginning and the other two at the end of the legislature should not be foreign to this difference in content.

First subjects: the representativeness of trade union organizations and their financing are two key crossing points to establish a genuine social democracy in our country. Today, the representativeness at the national level is reserved for five organizations (CFE - CGC, CFTC, CFDT, CGT, FO) on the basis of a decree of 1966, the obsolescence of certain criteria blocks any evolution. Tomorrow, reinforced in their legitimacy by a national vote of representativeness, the unions will be more willing to negotiate, to manifest. Indeed, the weight of obtained votes ensure a better hearing with representatives of employers and public authorities including filling the weakness of the unionization rate, which is stagnating in our country around 8. With additional resources, they can be even more listening to employees and strengthen their economic and social expertise. The submission of their proposals will be supported in and adapting to new places of social dialogue, at both the European Union and the regions, will be facilitated. The project of the Socialists advance concrete proposals in this direction. Include the representativeness based on the suffrage of employees, the core funding by public funds or even majority agreements in the democratic sense of the term, unlike the Fillon law. Need to hear each of these points as used as a base a real negotiation with all the partners social and not as a desire to regulate, albeit in the right direction.

But can it stay there Should be once more just to respond to the present without the future On the contrary, the new dimension of social dialogue, which complements the previous one, is already taken into account. It is structured around 3 axes: Europe, proximity and anticipation.

Economic and social matters, there is a double displacement of reference perimeters, one away to Europe, the other closer to territories. The definition of social public order is only located in the national framework. The European Union intervenes more and more on this subject, and liberalism requires often a minimum. We think, for example, the duration of labour as to its exercise conditions. At the other end, the regions and, more recently, communities are increasingly important in the resolution of the problems of employment. This movement is due to the decentralization of economic matters and training skills. But the virtues of proximity, to better understand and better Act, were also greatly favoured its emergence.

To control the European reality calls for coordination between policies Government and French members of the Union and the social partners. Nothing of the sort of less formalized, exists today. Transnational clusters are indispensable to build Europe, but this does not relieve build perennial places of meeting and exchange between national. In particular, since the social agenda, programming the themes of the social dialogue at the national level, the air collection general assent, extend the Party devoted to the social Europe.

In the territories, the context of action is to evolve. Structures of meetings and negotiations between the players of the local economy are still developing to extend decentralization in the social field. Economic and social councils regional appear all indicated to fill this role, provided that their organization is reviewed. In communities, homes of employment have been created to meet the demand of the "single desk" for job-seekers. Good idea, if these structures do not derive to become the "jobs centers" on the British model in "municipalizing" the issue of employment. On the contrary, their role could be supplemented by becoming places where policies, employers and unions intervene concretely on economic and social territory. Eclairant decision, controlling its legality and fairness, the State has any place in this device, but not more than decide everything, as it is still too often the case.

It is the closest to the reality, with involved policy makers, that can be find, among other things, the most appropriate solutions to relocations and restructuring, which degrade the employment and working conditions. More importantly, it will be to empower players and local policies to anticipate to avoid brutal ruptures. Are many areas of intervention: training, the orientation of the investments of SMEs and the TPE with the inflections of the markets, the transmission of the work tool, prevention of relocation, but also the improvement of working conditions by sharing of solutions or taking account of the trips work in travel plans. It is as well as to construct a renovated social dialogue and live social democracy, guarantors of an economy that does not sacrifice fairness in efficiency.
