Indexation of pensions on the menu
Olivier Dussopt will indeed have the difficult task of carrying out the pension reform promised by Emmanuel Macron, a major project at the start of the president's second five-year term.
The Head of State proposed during the campaign to gradually shift the legal retirement age to 65, with a review clause at the end of the five-year term, in 2027, when the legal retirement age will have reached 64 years old.
Negotiations with trade unions and employers' organizations could start in September or October, Olivier Dussopt said on RTL on Tuesday.
