Summary
Mr. Sylvain Carrière alerts the Minister of Labor and Solidarity about the deterioration in the working conditions of employees of the La Poste group. Postal workers have been undergoing reorganizations, restructurings and significant reductions in staff numbers for several years, particularly in Hautes-Pyrénées with the elimination of 120 postman jobs in five years in the department. In Hérault, according to the unions, more than 10% of Post offices have disappeared in recent years. However, each time a job or an office is eliminated, the workload is transferred to others, with rounds which are sometimes extended by almost two hours. This situation leads to a deterioration in the working conditions of postal workers and job insecurity due to work overload and understaffing. Several union mobilizations took place these last two months, but these are regularly repressed. In the Pyrénées-Orientales, a union delegate was dismissed and five other union representatives were subject to disciplinary procedures for participating in a demonstration to support their colleague. After several months of open conflict with the management of La Poste, one of the incriminated employees even tried to end his life because of this untenable situation. These profound dysfunctions affect not only the lives of postal workers, but also that of users, particularly in rural areas. Maintaining a local network equipped with the human and financial resources necessary for its proper functioning constitutes a vital issue for these living areas. In this context, he asks him how he intends to act to ensure that the right to organize of La employees Position is respected and their working conditions improve, so that they can guarantee the crucial public service mission entrusted to the group.
