- 8 mars, journĂ©e internationale de la femme -- March 8, International Womenâs Day
"N'oubliez jamais qu'il suffira d'une crise politique, Ă©conomique ou religieuse pour que les droits des femmes soient remis en question. Ces droits ne sont jamais acquis. Vous devrez rester vigilantes votre vie durant." Simone de Beauvoir Ce jour du 8 mars est un devoir de conscience pour le droit des femmes - et votre SFE ne vous a pas oubliĂ©e ! Traditionnellement et internationalement dĂ©diĂ© Ă la femme, nous dĂ©sirons, Ă cette occasion, vous expliquer que nous dĂ©dions une partie de notre temps Ă nos membres fĂ©minins. En 2017, lorsqu'on entend dire au sein de nos institutions qu'il est normal qu'une femme gagne moins qu'un homme, parce que les femmes sont plus faibles, plus petites et moins "intelligentes", cela prouve que le "combat" n'est pas encore terminĂ©, mĂȘme chez nous! Chaque jour, nous continuons Ă tout faire pour rĂ©aliser notre programme tel qu'il vous avait Ă©tĂ© prĂ©sentĂ© lors des derniĂšres Ă©lections. Ce qui signifie que nous discutons et luttons Ă©galement en faveur de la femme. Voici quelques points, qui nous semblent concerner plus particuliĂšrement les femmes et que nous voulons arriver Ă modifier: EgalitĂ© de traitement Bien souvent et surtout dans certains domaines, Ă grade et travail Ă©gal, prĂ©fĂ©rence sera donnĂ©e au collĂšgue masculin. RĂ©duction du temps de travail La Commission, dans le nouveau Statut 2014, a inscrit une nouvelle disposition qui permettrait aux mĂšres de famille de rĂ©duire leur temps de travail de 5 % tout en ne rĂ©percutant pas cette diminution de temps de travail sur leur salaire. Evidemment, cette "faveur" est soumise Ă plusieurs conditions, mais celles-ci sont tellement restrictives qu'en pratique, quasiment personne ne peut en bĂ©nĂ©ficier! En effet, l'enfant doit ĂȘtre ĂągĂ© de moins de 14 ans, le fonctionnaire doit se trouver dans des "difficultĂ©s graves", apparues rĂ©cemment et une situation financiĂšre difficile. Si nous avons des membres Ă qui l'on a refusĂ© d'appliquer cet article du Statut, et qui ne nous ont pas encore contactĂ©s, nous leur demandons de se manifester auprĂšs de nous; Le tĂ©lĂ©travail Alors que le tĂ©lĂ©travail est trĂšs important pour l'Ă©quilibre vie familiale/vie professionnelle, il n'est pas mis en Ćuvre dans tous les services. De plus, lorsqu'il est mis en Ćuvre, il ne l'est pas de la mĂȘme maniĂšre partout. Cela met en pĂ©ril l'Ă©quilibre vie professionnelle-vie privĂ©e et complique la vie des mĂšres de famille - surtout si elles sont seules - qui s'occupent d'un enfant ayant besoin de soins particuliers et celle des parents en gĂ©nĂ©ral. Les femmes aux postes de management Des rĂ©unions dĂ©butent encore aprĂšs 17h, ce qui fait que bien souvent, les femmes hĂ©sitent Ă accepter des postes de management. Le ComitĂ© "Ă©galitĂ© des chances" avait discutĂ© de cette question et votre SFE y Ă©tait reprĂ©sentĂ©; le comitĂ© "Ă©galitĂ© des chances" produit des rapports annuels que vous pouvez consulter sur myintracomm et vous y verrez que l'on veut davantage de femmes aux postes de management Temps partiel Nous avons participĂ© aux rĂ©unions du comitĂ© "temps partiel", lorsque cela s'avĂ©rait nĂ©cessaire. Dans ce comitĂ© aboutissent les demandes non satisfaites de temps partiel; votre SFE y a suivi plusieurs dossiers. Et les exemples ne manquent pas⊠Soyez actives et faites nous connaĂźtre votre expĂ©rience! Ensemble, nous arriverons Ă changer les mentalitĂ©s n'ayant pas encore vraiment Ă©voluĂ©. â " Never forget that a political, economic or religious crisis will suffice to get women's rights into question. These rights should never be contested. You will need to remain vigilant throughout your life." Simone de Beauvoir The day of March 8th is a day of reflection regarding rights of women - and your SFE has not forgotten you! As it is traditionally and internationally dedicated to women, at this occasion we would like to inform you that part of our time in SFE we dedicate to our female members. When we hear in our institutions in 2017, that it is normal for a woman to earn less than a man, because women are weaker, smaller and less "intelligent", this proves that the "Fight" is not yet finished, even in our institutions! Every day we continue to do everything we can to achieve our program as it was presented to you in the last election. This means that we are also discussing and fighting for women. Here are some points, which seem to be of particular concern to women and which we want to be able to modify: âą Equal treatment Often, and especially in certain areas, at equal grade and work, preference will be given to the male colleague. âą Reduction of working time The Commission, in its new Statute for 2014, introduced a new provision which would allow mothers to reduce their working time by 5% while not reducing their wages due to reduced working time. Obviously, this "favour" is subject to several conditions, but these are so restrictive that in practice, virtually nobody can benefit! In fact, the child must be under 14 years old, the official must be in "serious difficulties" as appeared recently and in a difficult financial situation. If there are members of our trade union who have been refused to apply this article of the Statute, and have not yet contacted us, we encourage them to do so. âą Teleworking While telework is very important for work-life balance, it is not implemented in all services. Moreover, when it is implemented, it is not implemented in the same way everywhere. This jeopardizes work-life balance and complicates the lives of mothers - especially if they are alone in charge of a child in need of special care and that of parents in general. âą Women in management positions There are meetings starting still after 5 pm, which means that women often hesitate to accept management positions. The Equal Opportunities Committee had discussed this issue and your SFE was represented. The Equal Opportunities Committee produces annual reports that you can consult on myintracomm and you will see that more women are wanted in management positions âą Part-time We also participated in meetings of the "part-time" committee, as necessary. In this committee, unfulfilled part-time applications are dealt with. Your SFE followed several files. And there are sufficient examples... Be active and let us know your experience! Together, we might succeed in changing today's situation; there are plenty of possibilities for further evolution.

- FERMETURE DE LA CAFETERIA du 20Úme étage au COV2? // CLOSURE of CAFETERIA at the 20-th floor of COV2
A la veille des fĂȘtes de fin d'annĂ©e CADEAU pour le personnel du COV2 FERMETURE DE LA CAFETERIA du 20Ăšme Ă©tage au COV2? BientĂŽt tous au food-truckâŠ? Il semblerait que l'OIB (et/ou la RTD) ait dĂ©cidĂ© d'offrir un cadeau de fin d'annĂ©e Ă l'ensemble du personnel travaillant dans le bĂątiment du Covent garden (COV2) majoritairement occupĂ© par les agences exĂ©cutives (ERCEA / REA/ EASME) mais aussi par la DG RTD! De nouveaux opens spaces ? Non! C'est dĂ©jĂ le cas. Des food-trucks ? vous y ĂȘtes presque⊠Il s'agirait de la fermeture de la CafĂ©tĂ©ria se trouvant au 20Ăšme Ă©tage du bĂątiment! Non seulement ce personnel des agences se sent dĂ©jĂ mis Ă l'Ă©cart (pas de vrai dialogue social, pas d'accĂšs aux concours internes,âŠ), mais maintenant, on leur enlĂšve leur cafĂ©teria! Les food-truck et restaurants du quartier pourront se rĂ©jouir, puisque c'est bientĂŽt plus de 2000 Personnes occupant ce bĂątiment et environ 500 experts, qui viennent rĂ©guliĂšrement lors de panels, qui se retrouveront sans cafĂ©tĂ©ria. Hormis ce problĂšme de petite restauration, c'est Ă©galement un lieu de rencontre et de convivialitĂ© qui fermera ses portes afin de laisser place Ă de nouveaux bureaux pour une des agences exĂ©cutives. Alors que la politique "bien ĂȘtre" de la Commission est de favoriser les Ă©changes entre collĂšgues et des lieux de dĂ©tente agrĂ©ables, dans les Agences exĂ©cutives, c'est plutĂŽt la rentabilitĂ© au mÂČ qui prime. Quand on sait que cette solution n'a jamais Ă©tĂ© appliquĂ©e dans les directions gĂ©nĂ©rales qui avaient besoin d'espace pour l'amĂ©nagement de nouveaux bureaux, on peut lĂ©gitimement s'interroger pour le COV2. A terme, l'OIB utilisera-t-elle Ă©galement les espaces "kitchenette" et "WC" pour amĂ©nager de nouveaux postes de travail ? Quâen est-il Ă©galement du coĂ»t pour adapter ces espaces "cafĂ©tĂ©ria" en espace de bureaux ? (vu la situation et afin de rentabiliser l'amĂ©nagement, on peut imaginer que les collĂšgues seront installĂ©s en open space directement sur les tables de cantine!) Le SFE souhaite interpeller l'OIB et/ou la RTD et demande Ă ce que de vraies solutions soient trouvĂ©es pour l'amĂ©nagement des collĂšgues et ce, en garantissant au personnel du bĂątiment COV2, les mĂȘmes conditions de confort qu'Ă la Commission, y compris le maintien d'un espace cafĂ©tĂ©ria vu la taille de COV2 et sa position excentrĂ©e par rapport aux autres bĂątiments du quartier europĂ©en! â On the eve of the end-of-year celebrations a PRESENT for COV2 staff CLOSURE of CAFETERIA at the 20-th floor of COV2? Soon all at the food-truck ...? It seems that the OIB (and / or RTD) has decided to offer an end-of-year present to all the staff working in the Covent garden building (COV2), which is mainly occupied by the executive agencies (ERCEA / REA / EASME) but also by DG RTD! New opens spaces? No! It's already the case. Food-trucks? You are almost there ... It is about the possible closure of the Cafeteria on the 20th floor of the building! The staff of these agencies already feel to be side-lined (no real social dialogue, no access to internal competitions, ...), but now even their cafeteria would be taken away! The food-trucks and restaurants of the neighbourhood will be happy, since more than 2000 people occupying this building and about 500 experts, coming here regularly to panels, will soon end up without a cafeteria. Apart from this problem of small catering, it is also a place of meeting and conviviality that will close its doors in order to make room for new offices for one of the executive agencies. While the Commission's "well-being policy" is encouraging exchanges between colleagues and promotes pleasant working environment, in executive agencies rather profitability per square meter is prevailing. As it is known that this solution has never been applied in the Directorates-General which needed space for the development of new offices, it is legitimate to question COV2. In the long term, will the OIB also use the "kitchen" and "WC" areas to create new workplaces? When is it worthwhile to adapt these "cafeteria" spaces to office space? (Given the situation and in order to make a cost-effective refurbishment, one can imagine that the colleagues will be installed in open space directly on the canteen tables!) The SFE wishes to challenge the OIB and / or the RTD and asks that real solutions be found for our colleagues by ensuring that the COV2 building staff have the same comfort conditions as the Commission, including maintaining a cafeteria space given the size of COV2 and its off-center location compared to other buildings in the European neighbourhood!
- Open spaces are slowly but surely taking over our institution, like gangrene
Where does that property policy come from? This new property policy was implemented at the OIB at the request of Commissioner Georgieva and the DG HR. It now also concerns the PMO, who will soon move to MĂ©rode (MCH2). For which purpose? First of all, no longer say 'open space' but 'collaborative space'. It is in this way that the OIB has decided to promote these areas, seemingly not appreciated enough. This "economic" long term policy should become profitable in 5 to 10 years, because open space avoids costly work when walls and other elements require renovating. A logic of space-saving is added to the money-saving logic. What about staff consultation? Not that long ago, the Administration proposed to DG Taxud to install open spaces in their DG. The staff of DG TAXUD which was consulted about this proposal by the Administration, spoke out against it. The staff was therefore successful. The proposal is also directed at the European Commission offices, the OIB and the PMO. But this time, that staff was not consulted in the same way. We dare hope that having a majority of contract agents in these departments has not played against them with respect to decision-making on the installation of those new collaborative offices. As such, should a meeting be called to present the new collaborative offices to the staff and allow them at the same time to ask the questions they want, be considered a staff association or staff consultation? At the PMO, staff consultation seems to be limited to the display of the plans of the MERO in the cafeteria of SC27 and at AN88. Everyone thus had the opportunity and pleasure to know where they would be placed from now on. The only choice left to the staff at present, is the colour of the partitions (separation between desks) they want, the number of drawers they want for their compartment and decorative stickers if they want. Unless we are mistaken, the PMO staff deserves a little more consideration than freedom of choice between 'mountain' or 'shell' sticker. It is important for all to make savings, but these must be in terms of actual costs. It is counterproductive to make efforts that would only deteriorate everyoneâs well-being. The calculation seems flawed, because both in the short and the long term, it will be the staff who may suffer. What about the well-being at work" for the staff concerned? If staff is promised time for necessary adjustment of several months, what will happen if they fail to adapt to this change? To get used to these new work environments, staff should adopt a new way of: living together? âą Collaborative spaces are sources of distraction. Indeed, they can interfere with productivity, because it is less easy for some colleagues to focus in this often noisy environment. The office lay-out promotes chatter and therefore more interruptions. Though this layout may appear as a new fashionable and very trendy concept (see Google, Facebook), it is not necessarily suitable for everyone! âą Letâs not forget the specific environment of our Institution, which is multicultural by nature. Some cultures are more open to work in open spaces, others may have a phobia of it. working? âą Working in collaborative spaces is not the solution for everyone. While some need to work in a team, other, more independent, need peace and quiet to be productive. Each of us has their own needs. âą Some activities also require special attention. That is the case of activities related to finance (wages), people who manage personnel affairs, etc... That is the whole of the PMO and the OIB. We are of course reassured and they tell us that quiet rooms will be available for more confidential or private calls or conversations. But were enough planned? There will even be an area on the ground floor, ready to welcome all visitors. This implies therefore, that appointments with set timetables will necessarily have to be made. One can only imagine the stress for managers who will have to juggle their appointments and the accessibility of these spaces and also will have to go back and forth between their office and the appointment place. With regard to discretion, review is needed, because the quiet rooms are in fact spaces with full glass partitions and the reception area will have to be an area with offices next to each other. being? âą It will be necessary to control the tone of voice (for tenors). âą It will be necessary to adapt to the smells of foods, to air conditioning that will be too high for some and not enough for others. âą Feng Shui enthusiasts can forget everything they learned for thriving in their work environment. It will be necessary to adapt to the fact that people walk behind us and that our screens are exposed to the sight of everyone. managing? âą Was training planned for those who will manage this staff in motion? For example, not being at your work station does not mean that you do not work. Many facts and actions can indeed cause confusion! Testimonies suggest that some managers are tempted by control (not to say policing) of their employees working in open spaces. Everyone monitors everyone! Pseudo managers could therefore multiply at the request - or not - of their superiors. The atmosphere in the office then quickly becomes horrible! What are the risks? More or less long term, this saving logic will be challenged by the risks that it will lead to. One of the first could be growing absenteeism which would have a substantial cost. All in all the savings made by multiplying collaborative spaces would be offset by the financial loss in other areas. Not to mention the investment of large sums required by the work, and in buildings where the lease would not be renewed. And the human in all this? But what does the staff really want? Who better than the staff as a whole, to assess "how best to work together". The SFE wishes to ask the CPPT (Committee for the prevention and protection at work), which very probably already took things in hand, to kindly bring us a full analysis of the current situation of the PMOâs move to the MCH2 and to explain us the applicable regulation, namely, what the accommodation manual provides in terms of staff association. In our opinion, staff association on the development of the open spaces MUST include the vote of all the staff (at a General Meeting or by electronic vote) and not only be decided by one person or a small group of people. And finally, in order to prepare ourselves to face the open space which may spread faster than you think, we recommend the essential survival kit for open spaces. We remain of course at your disposal for any question or suggestion. Your SFE
- 8 mars, journĂ©e internationale de la femme - March 8, International Womenâs Day
Au dĂ©but du 20iĂšme siĂšcle, les femmes se battaient pour le droit de vote et pour de meilleures conditions de travail. Aujourd'hui, la nature de ces revendications a en partie changĂ© mais elle se veut toujours aussi revendicative. La journĂ©e internationale de la femme de ce 8 mars constitue pour nous, citoyens europĂ©ens, l'opportunitĂ© de faire le bilan sur la condition de la femme dans le monde et de maniĂšre plus particuliĂšre, au sein de nos Institutions. Cette annĂ©e, l'ONU a choisi pour thĂšme, « PlanĂšte 50-50 dâici 2030 : franchissons le pas pour lâĂ©galitĂ© des sexes ». Les inĂ©galitĂ©s entre les hommes et les femmes sont plus ou moins marquĂ©es selon l'endroit de la planĂšte oĂč ils vivent mais ne se limitent pas Ă une culture ou Ă un pays en particulier, ni Ă des groupes spĂ©cifiques au sein dâune sociĂ©tĂ©. Les racines de la violence contre les femmes se trouvent dans la discrimination persistante Ă leur Ă©gard. Aux quatre coins du globe, beaucoup trop de femmes souffrent encore de violences physiques, sexuelles et psychologiques. Elles n'ont bien souvent pas le droit Ă la parole et encore moins le droit de participer Ă la vie publique. Au sein de nos Institutions, lâĂ©galitĂ© et la mixitĂ© entre hommes et femmes progressent, mais nous devons davantage promouvoir un management gĂ©nĂ©ralisĂ©. La part des femmes ayant eu accĂšs au management a progressĂ© ces derniĂšres annĂ©es mais la paritĂ© escomptĂ©e thĂ©oriquement est encore loin d'ĂȘtre une rĂ©alitĂ©. Nous devons faire face Ă la rĂ©alitĂ© des discriminations et nous engager, femmes et hommes ensemble, Ă une profonde rĂ©forme des mentalitĂ©s et des comportements. Nous devons encourager lâĂ©mergence dâune nouvelle intelligence collective mixte. Certaines Ă©tudes dĂ©montrent les bienfaits indĂ©niables de la mixitĂ© qui augmenterait la rentabilitĂ© et Ă l'inverse, l'inĂ©galitĂ© entre hommes et femmes qui auraient des consĂ©quences Ă©conomiques non nĂ©gligeables. Pour les femmes, le chemin vers lâĂ©galitĂ© et la mixitĂ© reprĂ©sente souvent une lutte quotidienne. Le rĂ©sultat est parfois lourd de consĂ©quences avec un nombre de burn out plus Ă©levĂ© que chez les hommes ainsi qu'une difficultĂ© plus grande Ă trouver un Ă©quilibre entre vie professionnelle et vie privĂ©e. Dans certains pays nordiques, lâĂ©galitĂ© et la mixitĂ© sont la norme. Femmes et hommes doivent faire Ă©voluer leurs prĂ©jugĂ©s conscients ou inconscients. L'impulsion doit venir de notre Administration qui se doit de faire respecter cette paritĂ© entre hommes et femmes. En ce jour particulier, nous souhaitons Ă toutes les femmes de ce monde de pouvoir trouver leur Ă©quilibre oĂč qu'elles soient et de pouvoir ainsi vivre en paix. Votre SFE â Version EN At the beginning of the 20th century women fought for their voting rights and for better working conditions. Today the nature of their requests has changed but the urgency for change has not. The International Womenâs Day of March 8th is an opportunity for us, European citizens, to take stock of the situation of women worldwide but, in particular, in the European Institutions. ââThis year the UN has chosen as topic âPlanet 50-50 by 2030: Step It Up for Gender Equalityâ Inequalities between men and women are more or less pronounced according to different locations on our planet. However, they are not limited to a particular culture or a particular country and neither to certain social groups in our societies. Violence against women is rooted in their continuous discrimination. In all corners of the world too many women continue to suffer from physical, sexual and psychological abuse. Very often they have no right to speak out and even less, to participate in public and political life. In the European institutions, equality and a proper gender mix make progress, but we still have to make more efforts to generalize the process. Participation of women in management has progressed in recent years but is still far from reaching what is fair and truly equal. We have to face discrimination wherever we see it, and together, men and women, we have to transform our mentality and our behavior. We have to encourage a new collective conscience of gender equality. Studies show the undeniable advantages and benefits of a proper gender mix and, the disadvantages which persist in case of inequality. It is still an uphill struggle for women to reach equality and a proper gender mix. Sometimes the consequences of this struggle are grave, resulting in a higher burn-out rate than that of men. Consequently, women often have more difficulties in finding a proper work-life balance. In certain Nordic countries gender equality and a proper gender mix are the norm rather than the exception. It is necessary everywhere that men and women become aware of their conscious or unconscious prejudices. However, the impulse has to come from our Administration who has a duty to press for proper gender equality. May this day contribute that all women can find balance wherever they are and live in peace â this is what we wish for. Your SFE
- Faites un compliment pour la journée mondiale du compliment - Give a compliment on the World Complim
Parce que nous avons tous besoin de reconnaissance et de valorisation, le SFE a dĂ©cidĂ© de faire de la journĂ©e mondiale du compliment, le jour le plus positif de l'annĂ©e. Celle-ci aura lieu le mardi 1er mars. Il est plus que jamais vital de recrĂ©er du lien entre tous, dans notre sociĂ©tĂ© oĂč seule la performance semble ĂȘtre valorisĂ©e. Les compliments sont gratuits, ils ne prennent que quelques secondes et surtout ils redonnent le sourire et mettent de bonne humeur pour toute la journĂ©e. Cette annĂ©e, nous avons fait le choix, certainement pas anodin, d'associer les managers Ă cette journĂ©e trĂšs spĂ©ciale. Les managers doivent sâimpliquer dans le bien-ĂȘtre au travail et apporter Ă leurs collaborateurs la reconnaissance nĂ©cessaire Ă leur Ă©panouissement ainsi qu'Ă leur progression. Il s'agit de la condition de rĂ©ussite, dâefficacitĂ© et de performance dâune Ă©quipe. Certains organisent de maniĂšre pĂ©riodique des petits dĂ©jeuners d'unitĂ©, d'autres ont imaginĂ© un arbre mural sur lequel le personnel dĂ©pose des post-it sur les branches afin de remercier leurs collĂšgues pour un sourire ou une collaboration agrĂ©able. Faites-nous savoir, en tant que manager, quelle idĂ©e originale avez-vous eue et mise en pratique afin de complimenter et valoriser votre personnel Ă l'occasion de cette journĂ©e mondiale du compliment? Le rĂ©cit de cette action peut se faire par email, Ă l'aide d'une vidĂ©o ou via tout autre support. Vous pouvez Ă©galement en tant que collaborateur nous expliquer comment votre manager vous a mis en valeur ou ce qu'il apporte de positif au sein de votre unitĂ©. Le SFE aura le plaisir d'offrir un petit dĂ©jeuner Ă l'unitĂ© qui aura dĂ©veloppĂ© l'idĂ©e la plus "chaleureuse". Aidez-nous Ă remettre l'humain au centre des prioritĂ©s ! Les performances vont de pair avec le respect, le bonheur et l'Ă©panouissement. Des gestes simples dâentre-aide et dâĂ©changes rĂ©els suffisent Ă nous rendre heureux. Ne laissons pas les Ă©changes spontanĂ©s disparaĂźtre. Faites un compliment, ça donne la pĂȘche ! Votre SFE â Because we all need to be recognised and valued, the SFE has decided to celebrate the World Compliment Day, the most positive day of the year which takes place on Tuesday, the first of March. Itâs now more important than ever to recreate relationships between one another, in a society where only performance seems to be valued. Compliments are free, it only takes a few seconds and above all they bring a smile to faces and put us in a good mood for the all day. This year, we made a very important decision to involve managers in this very special day as they should be involved in well-being at work and provide their employees the recognition to their fulfilment and progress as well. It is the criterion for success, efficiency and performance of a team. Some of them are used to organise breakfasts together, others have developed a tree wall where the staff puts sticky notes on the branches just to thank their colleagues for bringing a smile or for good cooperation. As a manager, let us know what original idea you had to give compliments and value your staff during the World Compliment Day. You can share your ideas via email with a video or through any other format. As an employee, you can also explain how your manager put you in value or describe the positive things he brings to your unit. The SFE is pleased to offer a breakfast to the unit that will have the most "friendly" idea. Help us to make people our main priority! Performances go hand in hand with respect, happiness and fulfilment. Simple acts of cooperation and sharing are enough to make us happy. Don't let spontaneous sharing disappear. Give a compliment and you'll bring smiles! Your SFE
- Ce 20 février, nous célébrerons la Journée mondiale de la justice sociale - On the 20th of February
On the 20th of February we commemorate the World Day of Social Justice. What does social justice mean? "Social justice is based on equal rights for all peoples and the ideal that benefits from economic and social progress are for all people without discrimination. Social justice is also and primarily a question of rights, dignity and freedom of expression for all workers, as well as economic, social and political independence." UN Social justice is one of the basic conditions of living together in peace. In our world, the gap between the richest and the poorest keeps widening. Every day, men and women take the difficult but inevitable decision to leave their country in order to flee the violence in the hope of a better life. The origin and the gender of a person should never obstruct the opportunity of receiving basic health care, getting a decent work, living without the fear of threats or physical violence. The International Labour Organization Declaration on Social Justice for a Globalization aims especially at ensuring living conditions for all through employment, social protection, social dialogue and respect for fundamental principles and rights at work. Some people are living in a situation which is beyond anything we can imagine and the SFE doesn't want to compare our situation to theirs. We believe that the services of our institutions responsible for dealing with these issues on a global scale are aware of the seriousness of the situation and act accordingly. As staff representatives, we want to do our job by making our contribution. Our role is to fight all forms of inequality still too present within our institutions. Gender parity is still not yet a reality. The AST status is in danger. Careers become limited for some people. The unequal treatment between the Executive Agencies staff and their colleagues of the European commission (same status but not the same rights) is still on the table. Some contract agents are still living in precarious conditions. This situation is the result of a social dialogue that is currently inexistent for the Executive agencies staff and that continues to deteriorate from year to year. Sooner or later, all the staff will be concerned. Don't wait until it's too late⊠Image: http://www.communication.gouv.ht/archives/3981 You are the OSPâs strength so you can give them power back. Together, we can strengthen the social dialogue. The social justice can only be ensured through your actions. Making the social justice its priority, the SFE based its electoral platform on strong values. The social justice issue is far wider because it represents an essential concept to us, which is the well-being. Some people think that the social equality is measured by quantifying the well-being. Help us in our commitment in advancing social justice by breaking down barriers related to gender, age, origin, culture or disability. We invite you to read the article of Maxime Kabandana on this matter ("syndicats et personnel : je t'aime⊠moi non plus") in our next panoptic, that will be published within a few days. The SFE remains at your disposal should you need any additional information. Your SFE â Ce 20 fĂ©vrier, nous cĂ©lĂ©brerons la JournĂ©e mondiale de la justice sociale. Mais quâest-ce que la justice sociale? "La justice sociale est fondĂ©e sur lâĂ©galitĂ© des droits pour tous les peuples et la possibilitĂ© pour tous les ĂȘtres humains, sans discrimination, de bĂ©nĂ©ficier du progrĂšs Ă©conomique et social partout dans le monde. La justice sociale, câest aussi et surtout une question de droits, de dignitĂ© et de libertĂ© dâexpression pour les travailleurs et les travailleuses, ainsi que dâautonomie Ă©conomique, sociale et politique." ONU La Justice sociale est l'une des conditions fondamentales d'un vivre ensemble et en paix. Dans notre monde, le fossĂ© qui sĂ©pare les plus pauvres des plus riches ne cesse de se creuser. Chaque jour, des hommes et des femmes prennent la lourde mais inĂ©vitable dĂ©cision de quitter les leurs afin de fuir la violence, et ce, dans l'espoir d'une vie meilleure. L'origine d'une personne et son genre, ne devraient jamais faire obstacle Ă la possibilitĂ© de bĂ©nĂ©ficier de soins de santĂ© de base, d'obtenir un emploi dĂ©cent et de vivre sans craindre de subir des menaces ou des violences physiques. La DĂ©claration de lâOrganisation Internationale du Travail sur la Justice Sociale pour une mondialisation vise essentiellement Ă garantir Ă tous des conditions de vie Ă©quitables grĂące Ă lâemploi, Ă la protection sociale, au dialogue social et au respect des principes et des droits fondamentaux au travail. Le SFE ne souhaite pas comparer notre situation Ă celle que peuvent vivre certaines personnes dans le monde, qui est au-delĂ de tout ce que nous pouvons imaginer. Nous sommes convaincus que les services de nos Institutions chargĂ©s de traiter ces problĂšmes Ă l'Ă©chelle mondiale sont conscients de la gravitĂ© de la situation et agissent en consĂ©quence. En tant que reprĂ©sentants du personnel, nous souhaitons accomplir notre travail en apportant notre pierre Ă l'Ă©difice. Notre rĂŽle est de lutter contre toutes formes d'inĂ©galitĂ©s encore bien trop prĂ©sentes au sein de nos Institutions. En effet, la paritĂ© hommes-femmes n'est pas encore une rĂ©alitĂ©. Le statut des AST est en danger. Les carriĂšres sont de plus en plus limitĂ©es pour certains. L'inĂ©galitĂ© de traitement entre le personnel des Agences ExĂ©cutives et leurs collĂšgues de la Commission EuropĂ©enne (mĂȘme Statut mais pas les mĂȘmes droits) est toujours d'actualitĂ©. Certains Agents Contractuels vivent encore dans la prĂ©caritĂ©. Tout cela est la consĂ©quence d'un dialogue social (inexistant actuellement pour le personnel des Agences ExĂ©cutives) qui continue Ă se dĂ©grader d'annĂ©e en annĂ©e. TĂŽt ou tard, l'ensemble du personnel sera concernĂ©! N'attendez pas qu'il soit trop tard⊠Redonnez du pouvoir aux OSP car vous ĂȘtes leur force. Ensemble, nous arriverons Ă renforcer le dialogue social! Ce n'est qu'Ă travers vous que la justice sociale pourra ĂȘtre garantie. Le SFE a basĂ© son programme Ă©lectoral sur des valeurs fortes en faisant de la justice sociale sa prioritĂ©. La question de la justice sociale est encore bien plus vaste, puisqu'elle recouvre Ă©galement une notion si chĂšre Ă nos yeux, qui est celle du bien-ĂȘtre. L'Ă©galitĂ© sociale se mesure pour certains en quantifiant le bien-ĂȘtre. Aidez-nous dans notre engagement Ă faire progresser la justice sociale en faisant tomber les barriĂšres liĂ©es au genre, Ă lâĂąge, Ă l'origine, Ă la culture ou au handicap. A ce sujet, nous vous invitons Ă lire l'article de Maxime Kabandana ("syndicats et personnel: je tâaime... moi non plus") dans notre prochain panoptique, qui paraĂźtra dans quelques jours. Le SFE est Ă votre disposition pour toute information complĂ©mentaire. Votre SFE
