It starts to mess. Here, a big social malaise and a strike that makes oil stain, there sometimes very troublesome operating incidents for users … a few months after the effective start of the first transport networks from opening to competition in the island -Do-France, the couracs multiply in this market that opens. The process will last almost twenty years. It started this year by the Optile bus networks of the Grande Parisian Crown, he will continue with the RATP buses (2025), the SNCF suburban trains (from 2023 to 2033), the trams (2030), and will end. by the metros and RER in 2040.
The first big pitfall is this strike that started in Transdev operator bus networks (subsidiary of the Caisse des Dépôts) in Seine-et-Marne, who extended to a dozen deposits and comes to enter his sixth week. Ile-de-France Mobilies (IDFM), the Organizing Authority of Transport in the Capital Region, chaired by Valérie Pécresse (free!), Found the situation sufficiently enkyty to decide to appoint a mediator, Monday, October 11, during his board of directors. The former president of the RATP and the Post Jean-Paul Bailly will lead “a mission to converge the points of view” between the strikers and the management of Transdev, in order to find an agreement where the company there was no will not have reached.
m. Bailly will also have to offer “recommendations for the consideration of social issues in future tenders,” says IDFM. Because the social conflict is very directly from the tilting in a competitive system. Everything left lot 18, a bus network in the Melun region and Fontainebleau. Transdev was already the operator as part of the Optile System before competition (markets were granted regularly). Following the call for tenders, Transdev succeeded himself, but with a new organization of the work, resulting from a base-investment negotiated with the Central Trade unions of Transdev but which made the employees leap on the ground.
Work conditions brutally degraded
“We tasted all the month of August, says Wynnessa Merabet, South trade union delegate at the depot of Melun. For drivers, the hourly amplitude has increased from 7:30 to 11 hours or 12 hours, with Time paid differently depending on whether it is considered actual work or not. But, in case of cap or delay, you end up driving a bus by being paid to 50% because you get out of your work range. And it’s not counting the end of holiday checks and meal bonuses. “
