Gabriel Attal announced Wednesday evening that he had asked his Minister of Labor Catherine Vautrin "to prepare new negotiations" on unemployment insurance. Among the options put forward, the Prime Minister mentioned a possible reduction in the duration of compensation.
“I want us to have the parameters of this reform in the summer so that it can come into force by the fall, as I committed to,” he added. The head of government also mentioned the two other "tracks" for reforming unemployment insurance: namely touching on the minimum time one must have worked to benefit from unemployment - currently six months in the last two years.
