Eric Heyer, an economist at the OFCE, the December figures are” symptomatic “of an” explosion “of job seekers with limited activity and therefore “precarious workers”.

The CGT evokes her a “downward spiral that is very expensive to employees and job seekers” and called on the government to “change policy.”
The president of MEDEF, Pierre Gattaz believes that “it is urgent” but that “unemployment is an unsurpassable destiny” encouraging “to continue and the necessary reforms.”
At the UMP, Eric Woerth speaks a “French tragedy” and believes that “national unity is not worth when every day brings 855 more unemployed.”
