It was the object of the Board of Directors of the National Fund for old-age insurance (CNAV), which met yesterday. Time: the Government wants to complete the record by the end of the month, to include the reform of the periods of insurance increases attributed to mothers in the Act of financing of social security for 2010. The Executive is seeking to achieve compliance, as quickly as possible, with the European authorities, who believes that the current legislation violated the principle of equality between men and women. All in now the budget current - these supplements cost 4.9 billion in 2006.
The meeting of yesterday has not led to a common position, but three unions in five seem to agree on the outline to be followed, at least for children born after the reform. It is more difficult to identify common tracks for children already born and whose parents are not yet retired. If the representatives of employers, a majority of the members of the Board of directors could formally propose the solution that has a preference. "Given that evolution is inevitable to us in accordance with the case-law, it is very important that the Council of the CNAV makes proposals if we do not want to undergo reform," said its President, Danièle Karniewicz (GSC).
Freedom of choice within the couple
CFDT, FO and GSC defend all three the idea of dividing the increase of periods of insurance, which is now two years per child in two. A year would be assigned automatically to the mother. To meet the case-law, it would be linked, to the education of children, but the maternity. Assign a year "broadly corresponds to the period of maternity and childbirth(neufmoisdegrossesseetdeuxmoisdecongématernité), highlight the CNAV services in a note given to administrators. The Prime Minister has suggested that this part would be fastened to one year. "In 2003, for the public service, I had granted an increase for women in respect of childbirth, for a period of six months." "It can go further today," said François Fillon at the "Figaro Magazine".
For the second year, several scenarios are being considered (see above), but the three unions prefer the freedom of choice within the couple. It is also the position of the Medef, as stated by Laurence Parisot at the "world" yesterday.
Two unions are opposed to this solution. The CGT and CFTC want to keep the two years for women exclusively, by linking to childbirth. "All other solutions would be disadvantageous for women as compared with the current situation," explains Mijo Isabey, administrator CGT. "We cannot let pass it, storm Pascale cotton (TCRC). In the event of subsidies between men and women, the latter would see their pensions amputees 11.
A crucial point remains to clarify. The award of a year of duration of insurance automatically to the mother will be seen as discriminatory by justice Should not rather reduced to six months, as in the public service On this point, the Government expects the analysis of the Council of State. In addition to this legal study, it also will consider the fact that no trade union would accept, at this stage, an increase in length of shortest insurance.
