“We ask you to stay privatization process for all Ile-de-France transport”

Ile-de-France Mobilités (IDFM) has chosen to initiate the process of privatization of the exploitation of bus lines currently managed by the Autonomous Régie des Transports Paris (RATP) whose state is the unique shareholder.

Although imposed on the Ferré network in the state of law, this process remains optional for the RATP bus network, other solutions were possible to constant right but have been dismissed. Valérie Pécresse, as president of IDFM, wished to open the private sector of bus lines today operated by the RATP, without consultation with users and users, neither transport workers, nor in Ile -de -France elected officials.

In order to prepare this privatization and the implementation of public service delegations (DSP), the current RATP bus network has been divided, by IDFM, in twelve geographic sectors (lots). Following this division, no later than 1 er January 2025, twelve private law entities should exploit the lines operated until today by the RATP if the process continued. The RATP historical network, shaped with the history of the Paris region and emblematic of France, would thus be dislocated. The public and commercial public establishment (EPIC) RATP is excluded from the calls for tenders prepared by IDFM, and the RATP had to create private subsidiaries to be able to respond to calls for tenders.

The first calls for tenders were published in early 2022. The twelve lots would be awarded at the earliest early 2024 for the end of the operation by the Epic Ratp on the night of December 31, 2024 at 1 ER 2025.

legitimate anxiety

Regarding the social impact of this tilting, privatization plunges nearly 14,500 machine-makers-currents in legitimate anxiety, but also all categories of jobs directly or indirectly contributing to bus activity and identified by decrees Application: regulators, agents assigned to the design of the transport offer, suppliers, storekeepers, current maintenance agents, controllers, support functions, etc.

Contrary to what can be read or heard, the maintenance of the current remuneration of people in post is in no way guaranteed. It is to be feared loss of remuneration with regard to the objective reaffirmed by Valérie Pécresse to save money with the passage in DSP.

Based on the principle of the transfer of employees of the EPIC RATP to competing private companies in 2025, all of the employment contracts of public law of all the personnel concerned must be processed by private employment contract . In the event of refusal, these personnel will be dismissed for economic reasons, that is to say without dismissal compensation.
