The fixed compensation for work on Sundays and public holidays and night work for some hospital staff will be increased on January 1, in accordance with the government’s commitments, according to two texts published this Saturday in the Official Journal.

As an extension of the agreement relating to the hospital public service within the framework of ‘Ségur de la santé’“, compensation for night work will be increased by 25%, according to a decree. And “fixed compensation for working on Sundays and public holidays” goes from 44.89 euros to 60 euros, on January 1, according to a decree.

Agnès Firmin Le Bodo, interim Minister of Health after the resignation this week of Aurélien Rousseau, greeted on the social network X (formerly Twitter) “unique attractiveness measures“.

On August 31, the government announced a total of more than a billion euros in increases for caregivers, in particular in favor of night and Sunday work, a response to the hospital environment, and in particular emergencies, in crisis. permanent for several years.

To retain paramedical staff, “on will increase by 25% the remuneration for caregivers, nurses“, announced Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne. For non-medical staff, the government planned a 20% increase in Sunday work allowance.

The publication of these revaluations comes a few days after a new report from the statistical department of social ministries (Drees), published Wednesday, which establishes that more than 6,700 full hospitalization beds were closed in 2022.

The shortage of personnel partly explains, according to the Drees, this drop in reception capacities, which has been almost constant since the beginning of the 2000s, according to data from Irdes (Institute for Research and Documentation in Health Economics).

These bed closures lead to saturation in services, put pressure on teams and increase tensions in emergency services, caregivers regularly denounce. The Health sector was shaken again this week by the sudden resignation of its minister Aurélien Rousseau, in disagreement with the immigration law passed in a stormy atmosphere on Tuesday.

Another decree published on Saturday provides that Agnès Firmin Le Bodo, appointed interim minister, does not deal with subjects related to the “profession of pharmacy holder“, itself carrying out this activity. These attributions “are exercised by the Prime Minister“, specifies this text.
