At the close of a social conference at Matignon, the government announces a minimum-wage increase brought forward by one month and 5 euros higher than the adjustment that was to apply automatically on January 1. This increase brings forward by one month the adjustment scheduled for January 1. The government is therefore not allowing the automatic timetable to run its course.
The scale of the increase also departs from the sole effect of inflation. The automatic increase linked to that level would have been 1%. The announcement made at Matignon is larger than this mechanism.
The Matignon social conference thus produces two distinct outcomes: a minimum wage raised earlier and beyond indexation, and a new link between certain aid to companies and sectoral wage negotiations.
