They won 1,500 euros in Covid bonus, instead of the 1,000 euros offered by their management, and a salary increase of 3%.
The staff of the 20 laboratories of the Biofusion medical biology group - located in Haute-Garonne, Tarn-et-Garonne and Lot - have returned to their benches after a week of strike action.
While Christophe Couderc, departmental secretary of the CGT of Tarn-et-Garonne, welcomed the "progress made" Biofusion said Wednesday on its website that "all

The management had itself publicly acknowledged during the conflict that its employees were "mistreated by the extra work".

This mobilization was unprecedented in medical biology laboratories since the rise of virological tests (PCR), the number of which now exceeds one million per week according to the Minister of Health Olivier Véran.
François Blanchecotte, the president of the Union of Biologists (SDB) sounded the alarm at the beginning of September, recalling that the employees of private laboratories had not obtained anything from the Ségur de la santé.
