Bonuses, privatization of the crèche: several social movements at the Toulouse University Hospital
Several gatherings took place this Thursday, October 6 at the Toulouse University Hospital, to claim bonuses and to announce the future privatization of the crèche.
Several gatherings were organized this Thursday, October 6 at the University Hospital Center (CHU) in Toulouse.
A first claimed for the entire biology center
The Force Ouvrière (FO) union had filed a strike notice at the request of the staff of the biology center for the award of a bonus. The strikers are demanding that the “external B laboratory bonus” be applied to all staff in the biology center (hospital service agents (ASH), logistics agents, administrative staff, technicians, executives, engineers, biologists, interns, etc.)” Because everyone participates in the management of exams that come from outside. In France, several establishments, whether small or large, pay this first “, argues FO. The management of the Toulouse University Hospital indicates that it met with staff representatives this week and “study the request made with regard to the regulations”. A next meeting is scheduled for Thursday, October 13, 2022.
Critical care: recovery room workers also want to be valued
Some of the care staff also criticize his dissatisfaction. At the call of the CGT union, they went on strike this Thursday, October 6. They claim that the payment of the critical care bonus is not limited to nurses and executives of these extended services but either to caregivers and childcare auxiliaries “in order to recognize their work, to value it and to retain caregivers at the hospital”. The management of the Toulouse University Hospital specifies that it “applies the national regulations” and that “in accordance with the decree of January 10, 2022, this first concerns health managers and state-certified nurses in resuscitation, intensive care and continuous monitoring. The application of the texts does not provide for the extension of this bonus to SSPI agents (recovery rooms).
Rangueil nursery: the CGT denounces the privatization project
Finally, the CGT also organized a demonstration against the decision to privatize the Rangueil hospital crèche. For the union, “it is completely scandalous to privatize yet another service of the Toulouse University Hospital”. The management of the Toulouse University Hospital explains its approach by the need to modernize the building dating from the 1970s: “the project has endeavored to guarantee the current status of the staff of the crèche who will be made available. Professionals are also supported individually and regularly informed of the progress of the project. The date of the project for the takeover of the Rangueil crèche by the service provider has not yet been decided”
