SNCF: the sore subject in the organization of work – Les Echos

Guillaume Pepy had decided to get rid of, but unions are clinging to it, and the government gave them to the great displeasure of the direction of the station: the “19/6″ as it is known in the railroad home language, has become these days the symbol of the tensions around the future organization of work of the public company, tensions that have grown three unions to launch an indefinite strike from Wednesday.

This rule is enshrined in a decree of 1999 that details how the company may decline 35 hours. It stipulates that train crews can finish his service after 19 hours if the weekly holiday starts the day, and can then return to work before 6 am the next morning.

This provision makes planning timetables. Moreover, it has a corollary, says an industry expert: “If a driver ends after 19 hours, although it was not planned – when the train is late, for example, then the following day is regarded as a day off. “ In total, according to his calculations, the 19/6 would lose 4 working days per year per agent, with a population of 20,000 agents.

Gold management had a window of opportunity to relax this rule, and increase productivity. The railway reform passed in 2014 provides that the existing text will lapse on 1 July. By then, a company agreement setting new terms to be negotiated.



“More social life”

in a meeting with unions on May 13, HRD has proposed the establishment of a 19/6″ sliding “with an amplitude of ± 2 hours in passenger transport, and more or least 3 hours on freight. This new rule was valid for one week two or week three. And she would not have concerned all roller personal “ no change for the Transilien bearings” , stated the company’s document. Drivers and Ile-de-France controllers are indeed extremely attached to this provision. 40% of them are “road” in the jargon of the train, that is to say, they live outside the region (in the Hauts-de-France, the Loire Valley, Burgundy …) the 19/6 ensures their return home the day before their day of rest. Management has prudently chosen to dodge the issue with this population.

But the unions do still would not listen. “The railway workers have rarely their their Friday or Saturday night, for example, advanced the CFDT. If their evening starts at 21 hours, not 19 hours, they will have no social life. ”

A symbol for Pepy

Meanwhile, Guillaume Pepy either him not wanted to let go, making the questioning of 19/6 symbol of the necessary adaptation of SNCF. But it was not followed, despite his resignation threats by the government, which granted the status quo at the UNSA and CFDT. “statement-making” established following the direct discussions between the executive and the two unions certainly provides that local concessions can be negotiated, but with financial compensation or in terms of required working time.

episode Review: a weak leader (although Guillaume Pepy is seeking financial compensation order from the state); the end of the last illusions about the state-strategist; the outlook for the SNCF, tomorrows difficult to compete
