Question 13456 — civil servants and public agents

Summary

Mr. Pierre-Yves Cadalen draws the attention of the Minister of Ecological Transition, Biodiversity and International Negotiations on Climate and Nature to the lack of resources and staff in the body of park and workshop workers (OPA). These state workers have a particular status, linked to the specificity of their qualification, their profession and the jobs they perform. In the second constituency of Finistère, Many OPAs work on lighthouses and beacons, a division of the DIRM Nord Atlantique Manche Ouest (DIRM NAMO). These workers maintain lighthouses, secure sea lanes in order to comply with international standards and contribute to the strategy for coastal combat against pollution of the marine environment. In 2014, the DIRM NAMO lighthouses and beacons service had ninety OPAs; today they are about fifty. Budget cuts have led to job cuts as well as a moratorium on recruitment, observed since 2019. This spectacular reduction in workforce necessarily produces a deterioration in the working conditions of workers: it creates a deficiency in the intervention chain, extends the recovery time in operational conditions after an incident, increases the rate of vulnerability and deprives the service and the OPAs of expertise and know-how acquired over time. In the same logic, it is the service provided to users that is deteriorating. It is essential to protect the status of takeover bids, without devaluing it, by finding a lasting solution to recruitment problems. In the case of lighthouse and beacon workers, the challenge is twofold: it is a question of both ensuring optimal security of maritime routes and of protect a heritage to which citizens are very attached. The image of headlights is very often used in advertising, without any tax being levied on the use of this image. In addition, the maintenance of these buildings, most of which are classified as historic monuments, requires very specific skills. He therefore asks her her intentions on this subject.
