An offer that may not satisfy the SNCF unions.

The group's management has offered railway workers a salary increase of 5.9% on average in 2023 following mandatory annual negotiations.

The railway group has proposed a general increase of 2% for all, accompanied by a "lump sum revaluation" of 600 euros gross annually, according to a union source.

With the increase in various bonuses (night work, Sundays, public holidays) and the payment of 75% of the transport subscription instead of 50% currently, management estimates that the salary increase is approaching 6% on average.

On Wednesday, the unions had not yet communicated their position on this offer.



The three unions are asking for measures at least equal to inflation, at 6.2% in November over one year.

Last Thursday, SNCF CEO Jean-Pierre Farandou warned: “Be careful, if wages increase too much, ticket prices will eventually increase too.

“But without a clear announcement of a general wage increase, “the management will complicate things in terms of the social climate,” warned Cédric Robert, federal secretary of the CGT-Cheminots.
