Summary The State's wage policy has undergone significant changes over the last decade. Parametric adjustments (freezing of the index point, de facto indexation of low salaries to the minimum wage) and partial measures (reclassification of certain categories) have been adopted, but more structural reforms of the remuneration system, even if they were desired by the State, have not really succeeded. At the same time, the State's salary policy has become more categorical. Beyond the limited effects on average purchasing power, these changes have had important consequences and help explain the rise of significant salary discontent. All of these developments are of concern to the trade unions, whose strategies at various levels (central and local) vary from opposition to support.
