It all started with the announcement of the "finished party", a provision that allowed Toulouse garbage collectors to leave their workstations once their collection round was over.

After four weeks of strike action, and while the trash cans are piling up in all the streets of Toulouse and part of the municipalities of the Metropolis, new proposals made by the community could suggest a way out of the crisis.

"The community has agreed to grant us eleven additional days of leave for the arduousness of our work," Nicolas Refutin, secretary general of FO de la Métropole, told AFP. A step forward compared to the two days initially proposed. These days of subjection would be supplemented by the establishment of reduced hours during the summer months "as well as compensation for Saturdays or public holidays worked", continues the trade unionist who alongside other organizations initially requested 34 days compensation, the equivalent of a 15% reduction in working time, like what the Marseille garbage collectors obtained.

“The community also assured us that there would be no cuts in pay as we feared, and that there would even be some increases. If we put all these proposals end to end, we arrive at an 11% reduction in working time. We demanded 15% and the community, it proposed 3% at the beginning, "said the trade unionist who welcomes this" progress ", but waits" to see the proposals in writing ", continues Nicolas Refutin.

Garbage collectors, who have been blocking access to the depots for several days, will be consulted this Thursday morning to determine whether they will resume work or continue the strike.
