In light of all our efforts and attempts during 27 negotiation meetings, 5 meetings at the ONC and considering that the sixteen-week conciliation deadline stipulated by the Labor Code expired on 14 July 2023, both Unions, LCGB and OGBL, have signed and sent a letter to the ONC today where they decree non-conciliation.
 
This process is in accordance with the mandate obtained during the ratification process in July from all members of both Unions.
 
Although the contracting Unions, LCGB and OGBL, are willing to find solutions in this matter at any time, at present, it must be acknowledged that the negotiations have failed.
 
The letter to the ONC includes a request to proceed in accordance with Article L.164-5, paragraph (4), as well as Article L.164-6 of the Labor Code, which foresees that the secretary of the ONC prepares a non-conciliation report signed by the president.
 
Please standby for further updates and stay united!
