The irony of the calendar, these numbers fall on the day of the presentation by the Council of Ministers of Labour Bill, a reform that the present Executive as a response to mass unemployment.
In February, the number of job seekers without work rose sharply, with 38,400 new subscribers in France.
This sharp increase largely erases a significant drop recorded in January registered by employment center: 27,900 people less than the end of December 2015. But the statistics service had referred to events “ Unusual and unexplained “which made interpretation difficult decline.
The jump recorded in February, the highest since September 2013, was due “ much ” by the passage in category A (no activity) of registrants categories B and C (activity) “ previous months “, analyzes the Minister of Myriam El Khomri Jobs in a statement.
With the job seekers who had a small business, employment center lived in the end of February 5.46 million registered (3100) in France and 5.77 million including overseas, an increase over three months 0.3%.
The rise was most dramatic on-year, 3.7% in France and 3.6% in France entirely.
Compared with January, the numbers are wrong both in regard to young people under 25 years (+ 0.5% in category A) seniors (+ 0.9%).
For the long-term unemployed, rising, small activity range is + 0.3% on month but above 8.5% year on year.
– ‘continuing failure’ –
These poor figures that follow “ very large variations from one month to the other “, ” invite to intensify action “of the government, said Ms. El Khomri from Rosny-sous-Bois (Seine-Saint-Denis).
Since June 2012, the number of Class A of unemployed increased by 647 400 in France. But 2015 had shown signs of improvement: the unemployment posted its smallest increase since 2010 and the economy has created more than 82,000 jobs merchants, after destroying three years.
And despite a sluggish global climate, French growth should regain energy in 2016, according to INSEE expects a growth rate of 0.4% in the first and second quarter, thanks to a rebound in consumption, sustained investment and strong exports.
But in the meantime, there is not “ enough jobs to engage the mechanical unemployment drop ,” notes Mathieu Plane, an economist at the OFCE.
Francois Hollande has reiterated: the reversal of the unemployment curve, it promised before the end of 2013, will determine his candidacy for a second term in 2017.
Thursday Republicans lambasted “ disaster employment “, the February figures confirm “ continued failure ” of the president.
The head of state declared earlier this year “ state of emergency ” against unemployment by announcing a comprehensive training plan for 500,000 additional unemployed a new premium hiring for SOHO-SME.
The executive has embarked on a final reform of labor law, with an expected impact on employment, but in the longer term. Objective: enable companies to better adapt to the vagaries of the economy via increased flexibility of working time and encourage hiring on permanent contracts rather than CSD.
The project is opposed by some trade unions and youth organizations: they were still thousands – 43,000, according to the Ministry of Interior in the streets Thursday to demand its withdrawal, before a day Action on March 31 at the call of the CGT, FO, FSU, Solidaires, UNEF, UNL and Fidl.
But it is also criticized by the employers themselves, who denounced the withdrawal of measures to promote employment in SMEs TPE-like cap prud’homales allowances. Reacting to the figures, Medef has called “ return to the initial ambition of Labour Bill ” to “ free the creation of sustainable jobs .”
Conversely, the CGT has again demanded its withdrawal and called for a new “ reduction of working time ” to get out of a situation become “ drama . ”
