Several unions and hospital collectives on Thursday called "staff and users to mobilize on June 16", so that the government "take into account all their demands", in full "Ségur de la santé".
Mentioned for several weeks, the date is now confirmed: June 16 will be "a day of national action, initiatives and strikes," said ten organizations in a statement.
This coalition includes four of the five main unions in the hospital public service (CGT, FO, SUD, Unsa) and the two collectives (Inter-Emergencies, Inter-Hospitals) that have been at the forefront for more than a year in strikes and demonstrations.

They demand in particular a "general revalorization of wages", a "recruitment plan", a "training plan" and "the end of all closings of establishments, services and beds".
Denouncing "the not taken into account" of their requests by the government, they affirm that "the professionals will no longer be satisfied with fine promises and half measures".
This mobilization will take place in the middle of the “Ségur de la santé”, launched by the executive on May 25 and supposed to be completed by mid-July in order to concretize the “massive investment and upgrading plan” announced at the end of March by Emmanuel Macron. Nicole Notat, former secretary general of the CFDT, was responsible for piloting this Ségur.
