The government is committed to its reform of unemployment insurance.

From October 1, next Friday, he plans to introduce a new calculation of the allowance paid to job seekers, despite the opposition of several unions, which have seized the Council of State twice.

In June, the latter had also suspended the reform, arguing that the economic situation was then too degraded.

For the executive, the improvement in economic indicators observed in recent months justifies returning to the charge with his project.

Concretely, it intends to modify the calculation of the daily reference wage (SJR) in the name of "equity" between short contracts and long-term contracts.

This is nonsense for several unions, who recall that the monthly allowance paid will drop for many job seekers.
