PSA Peugeot Citroën (Paris:UG):
On Wednesday, 25 June 2014, all of PSA Peugeot Citroën’s six
labour unions – CFDT, CFE/CGC, CFTC, CGT, FO and GSEA – signed an
agreement to enhance measures taken under the Jobs and Skills
Alignment System (DAEC).
Presented as part of the New Social Contract signed on 24
October 2013, the Jobs and Skills Alignment System is designed to
secure the career paths of Group employees both inside and outside
PSA Peugeot Citroën.
At its meeting of 5 June, the central oversight committee on
trends in professions and capabilities had a new opportunity to
discuss the current situation and the outlook for the Group's jobs.
Although 60% of Automotive Division employees are in adequately
staffed jobs, 17% are in understaffed positions (jobs for which
opportunities exist) and 23% are in sensitive positions (jobs that
seem likely to decline in number due to anticipated changes in the
industry).
To ensure that all positions are adequately staffed, PSA Peugeot
Citroën confirms that it will apply adjustment measures under its
Human Resources Planning and Development (GPEC) programme and
enhance certain initiatives under the Jobs and Skills Alignment
System (DAEC).
Internal transfers will be encouraged, notably through the Top
Competences transitioning programme.
Concerning outplacement, new incentive measures will be
deployed.
As part of DAEC outplacement measures, employees in sensitive
positions who want to pursue a professional project outside the
Group may now benefit from six months of salary in addition to
severance pay under the collective bargaining agreement (ICL). In
addition, within the framework of Human Resources Planning and
Development, employees in sensitive or adequately staffed positions
may request that their work contracts be suspended, in agreement
with the employer, while they join another company during a secure
outplacement period. They may return to the Group within 24 months
if the project is not completed.
The Territorial Career Mobility and Transition Platforms
announced on 22 May 2014 are currently being deployed in PSA
Peugeot Citroën’s five French host regions (Alsace, Brittany,
Franche-Comté, Ile-de-France and Nord-Pas-de-Calais). The platforms
are responsible for carrying out initiatives to retrain
transitioning employees and prepare young people for the jobs of
tomorrow. Their programmes and operating methods will be defined in
each concerned region.
Commenting on the signature of this new agreement, Philippe
Dorge, Executive Vice President, Human Resources declared: “I would
like to take this opportunity to recognise the commitment of the
six labour unions who unanimously signed this agreement. The New
Social Contract’s results after six months demonstrate that it is
possible to address both business and labour challenges during a
time of economic crisis. Social dialogue has been instrumental in
helping us find solutions that will allow the Group to speed its
recovery.”
