💰 On a key Monday, the CFTC validated the signing of three national interprofessional agreements concerning Unemployment Insurance, senior employment, and social dialogue. This occurred almost exactly one year after the CFTC signed the last unemployment insurance agreement, now endorsing not just one but three ANIs. Amidst a one-month express negotiation, to prevent the government from potentially tightening unemployment regulations, the CFTC secured a significant achievement for senior employment: the option for progressive retirement starting at 60 instead of 62. Additionally, employers must provide a written and motivated justification in case of refusal.
