Pôle Emploi advisor since 2006 in Rennes, Yann Gaudin was dismissed on July 3, 2020. - J. Gicquel / 20 Minutes

He received the mail this Tuesday morning. Dated Friday, July 3, the letter written by the general management of Pôle Emploi notified him of his dismissal for serious misconduct. For the past four days, Yann Gaudin has no longer been part of the staff of the public establishment providing assistance to job seekers. Hired in 2006 as an adviser, who describes himself as a "whistleblower" does not intend to stop there. He is going to contest his dismissal. "I was expecting it and I was prepared for it", testifies the Rennais, joined by 20 Minutes . “Management's intention was clear. The officials wanted to get the whistleblower out. He no longer wanted me to intervene in the files ”.

Since 2014, the man had carved out a reputation as a rebel. He had then identified an "anomaly" in the files of intermittent workers at the end of rights show. To inform them of a solidarity aid never offered, he had sent an email to 8,000 intermittent Breton workers. "From there, I started to be wary and check everything."

"We have to worry but for the users of tomorrow"

These statements in the press undoubtedly pushed the management to look into his case. On June 23, Yann Gaudin had been summoned to a disciplinary interview, his superiors wishing to hear him "on a certain number of dysfunctions". Ten days later, his dismissal was recorded by the national management of Pôle emploi. “It is not for me to worry but for the users of tomorrow. The message is clear: do not make waves. My colleagues will have to close their eyes and it will be worse than before ”.

In recent years, the advisor has striven to advertise little-known aid or salary treatments excluded from the calculation systems. “Pôle emploi has great difficulty in admitting its mistakes. There are hundreds of people who saw their situation blocked who contacted me these last weeks. I will no longer be able to help them now that I no longer have access to the files ”.

Management's allegations denied

The allegations of the former adviser have always been denied by the management of the public establishment. "The mission of all Pôle emploi advisers, and it is their pride, is to help job seekers on a daily basis in their efforts, in particular so that they benefit from all of their rights", had declared one of the regional managers after the disciplinary interview. The litigation should continue before the industrial tribunal.
