Security will remain mantais.
After announcing his departure to Poissy, the Primary Health Insurance Fund (CPAM) will finally stay in Mantes-la-Jolie.
The departmental management has found a base in the city of Val-Fourré, in the building that has long housed the taxes, boulevard Clémenceau.
The 70 or so employees of the Social Security, from administrative services to public reception, will therefore all be grouped together in one and the same place from January 2022. They will be installed there on a temporary basis, before the construction of a new building. which will welcome them within two years, still at Val-Fourré.
The announcement was made Thursday to staff representatives.
"We are delighted with this solution and with the preservation of jobs on the historic site of Mantois", welcomes Mehdi Ourabah, CFDT union delegate.
This announcement looks like a full turn.
A few days ago, the local management was nevertheless categorical: the transfer to Poissy was recorded and premises had been sought, in vain, in the Mantaise region.
Only the reception of users could be maintained in offices shared with the Family Allowance Fund.
Rent of nearly 100,000 euros per month for fourteen years
Perhaps an elected official helped them to search with a little more acuity. As soon as the move was announced in the press, Pierre Bedier, president (LR) of the departmental council and elected mantais, was irritated to see a public service leaving the district. "The Sécu, make it my business", he launched, reassembled, in front of the members of the municipal council of Mantes-la-Jolie. His arguments clearly hit the mark with officials. "The departmental council contacted us and presented this solution to us," said Sylvie Landrieau, deputy general manager of the Yvelines CPAM, satisfied with this outcome.
The abortion of this transfer was greeted with relief by some of the staff working in Mantes-la-Jolie.
Many of them feared expensive trips from home to work and disorganized family life.
"Everyone is happy with the final outcome even if we will be vigilant on what will happen at the end of these two years," says an employee.
We must underline the work of our elected officials. ”
The episode reveals, in the background, another "particularity" of this file: for fourteen years, the Primary Health Insurance Fund has paid nearly 100,000 euros in monthly rent for a building of 4,000 square meters located in the district. of Val-Fourré.
Rents above the market price in Yvelines where offices are rented on average 15 euros / m² per month.
