This Saturday, February 11, 2023, the TGV, Ouigo, Intercités, TER, Transilien and RER will run normally. The SNCF unions did not call a strike on this fourth day of interprofessional mobilization against the pension reform, so as not to spoil the school holidays.
[Updated February 10, 2023 at 12:47 p.m.] The representative unions of the SNCF announced Monday that they were not calling for a strike in this 4th act of mobilization against the pension reform which takes place on Saturday, while until now that date was in dispute.
The Unsa Ferroviaire union would like a simple “call for mobilization, not a strike” on Saturday February 11, in particular to avoid criticism of this symbolic date for departures on winter vacation for zone B (Aix-Marseille, Amiens, Caen, Lille, Nancy-Metz, Nantes, Nice, Orléans-Tours, Reims, Rennes, Rouen and Strasbourg).
An opinion which was shared by SUD-Rail: “We debated the possibility of not having a call for a strike on this day and of having a simple call for demonstration”, announced the federal secretary of the union Erik Meyer to AFP. “We don’t want to block the holiday crossover,” he added.
