[Mis à jour le 18 juillet 2022 à 08h14] The thaw of the point of index of the civil servants, it is done! Civil servants had been asking for a raise for several months, they were extended by the executive. A salary increase of 3.5% is effective from July 1, 2022. In reality, it will only be visible on the payslip in August, with retroactive effect from July 1. But a question persists, how much will this increase in the salaries of civil servants really bring in? What will be the gain after the thaw? For a town clerk with 15 years of experience, the gain amounts to €57.30 per month. With the same experience, a peacekeeper will pocket €68.50 more each month. A mid-career midwife can expect to win €110.80 more per month. Finally, a nurse anesthetist with 8 years of experience should earn, each month, €91.10 additional.
This index point thaw is the first since 2017and the largest increase since 37 years. This long-awaited measure is part of the purchasing power bill bringing together around fifteen proposals in favor of the purchasing power of the French, carried by the Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne. All civil servants are concerned by the unfreezing of the index point up to 3.5%, civil servants and contract workers. The public service ofState, hospital and territorial will benefit from it. A historic increase therefore, but not necessarily to the taste of the opposition. Jean-Luc Melenchon (Nudes) demanded a net increase of 10%. Same thing for the CGT. This thawing of the index point remains, despite everything, a costly maneuver which could amount to 7.5 billion euros for the state. The government has also taken into account the poor health enjoyed by the teaching profession for several years. Indeed, the profession attracts less and less, in particular because of the remuneration, all the more so among school teachers at the start of their career. In mathematics and German, the Capes eligibility results revealed significant deficiencies. These two subjects are not full, the number of vacancies remains higher than the number of eligible candidates.
The amount of the civil service index point has been completely frozen since 2017. Indeed, for more than 5 years, no general increase in the remuneration of public officials has taken place. Only a few categorical increases have been implemented by Emmanuel Macron since his election as President of the Republic in 2017. For the time being, the value of this index point is €4.68. In other words, an annual treatment value of €5,623.23. If approved by Parliament, the index point could reach €4.85.
The minimum salary (increased index 352) should rise from 1,649.48 euros to €1,707.21 per month. In other words, €20,486.54 per year.
The increase in the index point for civil servants by 3.5% has been in effect since Tuesday, June 28, announced by the Minister of Transformation and the Civil Service, Stanislas Guerini during a social conference. The thaw of the index point, which serves as a basis in the calculation of public officials will be part of the purchasing power bill. As since its introduction, the index point must take inflation into account to allow the salaries of civil servants to follow the evolution of the rise in consumer prices (5.8% inflation in June 2022 on a year).
Problem, this clue point was frozen between 2010 and 2017. A thaw took place under François Hollande, the index point then increased by 0.6% on July 1, 2016 and 0.6% again on February 1, 2017. July 2022 therefore marks the first salary increase for civil servants in five years. On the side of the unions of civil servants, the increase claimed was of the order of 10%, in particular on the side of the CGT. On the one hand, to compensate for the harmful effects of inflation, but also to compensate for the losses of the civil servants related to the freezing of the point in 2010. It will not have been heard.
The revaluation of the index point, and therefore the increase in the salaries of civil servants, is not the only measure recently announced concerning them. First of all, the Gipa premium (individual purchasing power guarantee) is renewed in 2022. If the evolution of your indexed gross salary is lower, over four years, than that of the consumer price index, the Gipa bonus intervenes and is paid completely automatically with your treatment. Then the officers of category B at the start of their career should benefit from a extra help in terms of salary. Also, the eligibility conditions for sustainable mobility package will be more flexible in the public service. Finally, the State’s participation in financing the collective catering is revised upwards! She climbs from 7% in 2022.
The value of the index point amounts to €4.68602 since February 1, 2017 for an annual salary value of €5,623.23. It should be noted that this figure has been constantly rising since March 1, 1995 and could even rise to €4.85 in the event of validation of the increase by Parliament.
The thaw of the index point seems essential for a profession that is suffering from its reputation, and which is unable to recruit enough. In addition, some public officials have not benefited from the categorical measures taken by Emmanuel Macron. The Head of State preferring more general revaluation measures, before changing his mind recently on this famous index point. The increase in the index point is also linked to the constant rise in inflation, which has largely reduced the purchasing power of French households for several months (5.8% in June over one year).
