This Wednesday at past 6 p.m., Boulevard Jean-Jacques-Bosc between Bègles and Bordeaux saw two ministers pass by at once. Stanislas Guerini, Minister of Transformation and Public Service, and Guillaume Kasbarian, Minister Delegate for Housing, relocated to Bordeaux a meeting of the interministerial committee on the agent accommodation and came to visit the construction site of a residence in Euratlantique.

It was initially at the University Hospital that the ministerial team met to sign a partnership with several housing stakeholders. The moment was also an opportunity for Parisian MP David Amiel to submit his report on the housing of public employees, whose base salary has long been frozen while real estate prices skyrocketed. A situation which creates obstacles in the monitoring of the public service.

Police officers, teachers…

In Bordeaux, the minister highlighted “the exemplary nature of this territory”. Stanislas Guerini believes “that in France there is an urgent need to improve housing assistance for agents to strengthen the attractiveness of the public service and, consequently, its effectiveness”. The options are diverse: administrative simplifications, creation of a civil servant lease, construction of housing, reservation of housing for civil servants during last-minute transfers, etc. Police officers, gendarmes, teachers, childcare staff, nurses, caregivers, prison officers need social housing and intermediate housing.

“Bordeaux is a pilot territory because several avenues are tested by different players,” summarizes Guillaume Kasbarian. “In Gironde, in Libourne, the civil protection center will accommodate 700 rescuers, they will have to be accommodated. » Alexis Thomas, interim director general of the Bordeaux University Hospital, announced that the hospital “will test new devices and is already working with the entire ecosystem: the ministry, elected officials of the territories, the University and the ARS” .

“Childcare workers often cannot afford accommodation near daycare centers in certain neighborhoods”

University Hospital policy

Stéphane Pfeiffer, deputy mayor of Bordeaux, stressed that once the housing crisis has passed, “we will have to be vigilant so that builders continue to build intermediate housing because agents, for example from early childhood, have not often cannot afford accommodation near daycare centers, particularly in certain neighborhoods.” In Bordeaux, he took as an example the old parking lot of the Cité administrative, which he would like to see rehabilitated into a residence.

The Bordeaux University Hospital has been able to help 554 agents since it implemented its housing assistance policy in 2019. “It has happened that during recruitment, the candidate accepts the position then ends up refusing it due to lack of ‘have been able to find accommodation, deplores Matthieu Girier, director of the human resources department of the hospital. We have partnerships with donors who we contact as soon as a need arises. This helps retain agents and, ultimately, open beds. »
