The inter-union SNJ, SNJ-CGT, UFICT-CGT, SGLCE-CGT decided on Tuesday to renew its call to strike for 24 hours at the end of a general assembly.

The daily will therefore not appear on Wednesday, its management confirmed to AFP.

At the origin of the movement, a plan to safeguard employment (PSE) which provides for the elimination of around fifty positions, including 47 of journalists, within the SAS L'Equipe (the daily, the magazine,

Vélo Magazine

and the weekly

France football

, in the process of becoming a monthly) which employs 350 people.

At the same time, 12 job creations are planned to strengthen the Internet offer.

The goal is to save 5 million euros and avoid 6 million losses in 2021, in a context of falling paper sales aggravated by the health crisis and the end of sports competitions in the spring.

Alternative proposed by management

Faced with the sling, the management proposed on Monday a new alternative to the PSE: an agreement of collective conventional terminations allowing fewer departures, coupled with a collective performance agreement (APC), with elimination of RTT days and cuts in wages.

But

"the principle of the APC is rejected by the employees"

, according to Stéphane Antoine (SNJ-CGT).

The management has also

"improved a little the starting conditions"

associated with the PSE,

"but that does not guarantee the absence of a forced departure"

, added Stéphane Antoine.

A new meeting between unions and management is scheduled for Thursday, he said.
