The CFDT will not rally to the government's cause on pension reform.
Laurent Berger wanted to be clear and firm: "If there is a postponement of the legal retirement age to 64 or 65, the CFDT will mobilize to contest this reform", affirmed the secretary general of the union after the meeting between Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne and the social partners.

The one with Laurent Berger was one of the most anticipated.
But unsurprisingly, the latter showed no openness with the executive's project.
“The CFDT has hammered its opposition to the decline in the legal retirement age, but also hammered a stronger obligation of employers on the arduousness or long careers or even on the contributory minimum.
We can't say that we had a lot of clarifications, ”lamented Laurent Berger.
Do not talk to him about progress when we talk about leaving at 64 rather than 65.
It's niet and again niet.
“We are opposed to any extension of the starting age.
I no longer know how to say it or in what tone to say it, ”he gets annoyed.
