THE VERIFICATION – The LFI deputy has been brandishing, for several weeks, an OFCE document stipulating that the shift in the legal age of departure would lead to downward pressure on wages. Is right ?


Will the pension reform lead to lower wages?

In the media and political din of discussions around the government's project, LFI deputy François Ruffin has been hammering this argument for several weeks.

Known for a long time for his fight in favor of the working world against that of the bosses, the elected representative of the Somme put forward this idea during the games in the National Assembly, as well as during an interview on Europe 1, Monday March 6. , supporting documents.

"

I'm talking about wages because the effect of this reform is a report by the OFCE

(French Observatory of Economic Conditions) which

says: 'In the short term, the shock to the working population leads to a gradual rise in unemployment, which weighs on wage formation

, '

said François Ruffin, quoting a sentence from the report.

From this observation, the Insoumis draws two conclusions.

First, "

this reform will bring 190,000 to 250,000 more precarious people, that is to say people who will not reach 64 years of age while working, but who will be between unemployment, RSA, incapacity and incapacity.

Then, the text will generate “

precariousness

”: “

There will be more competition in the workforce, and therefore it will lower wages.

And it's encrypted!

What are the consequences?

-3% over 10 years on wages, because we put employees in competition with each other.

And as a result, wages are plunging.

According to the rebellious parliamentarian,

“It's not collateral damage, it's a benefit that is drawn.

This reform is made for markets and finance.

For them, it's obviously a gain.

But is the reasoning of the Insoumis correct?
