Question 42947 — logement

France · National Assembly · 11 July 2021

M. Stéphane Peu alerte Mme la ministre déléguée auprès de la ministre de la transition écologique, chargée du logement, sur la pénurie de places d'hébergement d'urgence, en particulier en Seine-Saint-Denis. Alors que la période hivernale débute à peine, les professionnels alertent déjà sur la saturation des centres d'hébergements d'urgence et ce, même pour les situations prioritaires à l'instar des femmes enceintes, des familles avec des enfants en bas âge, des personnes en situation de handicap. Ainsi, en novembre 2021, chaque jour ce sont entre 400 et 450 demandes de places d'hébergement d'urgence qui ne sont pas satisfaites pour le seul département de la Seine-Saint-Denis, contre 100 et 200 demandes habituellement. Selon Interlogement 93, association en charge de la gestion du 115 en Seine-Saint-Denis, entre 500 et 800 places sont d'ordinaire ouvertes au début de la trêve hivernale. Or au 23 novembre 2021, aucune d'entre elles ne l'a été. C'est une situation incompréhensible aux conséquences insupportables pour les ménages sans toit et pour les opérateurs en charge de répondre aux appels émis au 115. Les témoignages entendus ces derniers jours des opérateurs sont effrayants : « J'ai eu un appel très récemment qui m'a beaucoup touché », témoigne ainsi l'un d'eux : « Un enfant de 7 ans au téléphone, le fait d'entendre une voix d'enfant qui te dit "s'il vous plaît, aidez-moi, on a très froid, je n'en peux plus", c'est très dur ! ». Si M. le député reconnaît que des efforts ont été réalisés ces dernières années pour pérenniser des places d'hébergement d'ordinaire ouvertes pour la seule période hivernale, des moyens supplémentaires doivent être accordés afin que chaque appel émis au 115 trouve une solution. Aussi, il souhaite connaître les raisons qui n'ont pas permis d'ouvrir les places supplémentaires dès le 1er novembre 2021 comme cela est le cas chaque année et les mesures qu'elle compte prendre pour remédier au plus vite à cette situation.

Question 42937 — harcèlement

France · National Assembly · 11 July 2021

M. François Ruffin interpelle Mme la ministre du travail, de l'emploi et de l'insertion sur la maltraitance organisée chez EDF. « Un jour, mon harceleur m'a dit "je te veux". Plus je disais non, plus il me harcelait. » Un autre salarié explique qu'il a publié sur les dangers du nucléaire mal entretenu « du jour au lendemain on ne me donnait plus de travail. « Le directeur a demandé de ne plus t'en donner. » « Quand je suis arrivé en Andorre, le soir, le n+1 n'avait réservé qu'une chambre d'hôtel pour deux », dit encore une autre. « Ils ont fait venir une personne qui s'est présentée comme psychanalyste et cet e... a donné tous les témoignages à la direction qui s'en est servi pour purger l'équipe. » C'est aussi le cas pour Élodie qui explique : « Comme beaucoup de salariés en situation de handicap, j'ai été victime de discrimination. Pour avoir demandé l'application de l'accord handicap, j'ai subi du harcèlement pendant plus de 6 ans avec la complicité du médecin conseil - qui est salarié du groupe EDF -, ce qui a eu pour effet d'aggraver mon handicap. Comme beaucoup, j'ai donc fini en invalidité catégorie 2 ». Sur le site d'EDF, on peut lire qu'il s'agit d'« un employeur socialement responsable ». Chez les salariés, on peut entendre de plus en plus : « J'étais dans un mal-être. On m'a massacré ». Selon une vaste enquête du média Blast-info , il existerait un véritable système de pression chez EDF, où certains dirigeants peuvent agir comme bon leur semble en toute impunité. Les témoignages s'empilent chez Blast et Éthique en actions : harcèlement institutionnel, discriminations des personnes en situation de handicap, harcèlement sexuel. Depuis les révélations de Blast , EDF a eu pour seule réaction de convoquer Jean-Michel pour avoir partagé l'enquête sur son mur Facebook en interpellant les DRH. Il est aujourd'hui licencié. Cela montre que la doctrine est toujours la même. Des salariés finissent même par soupçonner qu'il s'agit d'un plan social déguisé, vu le nombre de départs. L'État employeur ou actionnaire doit agir. À moins que Mme la ministre ne préfère faire d'EDF le nouveau France Telecom ? Il souhaite connaître son avis sur le sujet.
