French government to cut 30,000 jobs next year
(Xinhua) -- The French government will not have new employees to succeed over 30,000 civil servants who are due to retire next year, Eric Woerth, minister for the Budget, Public Accounts and the Civil Service, said Thursday. Some 30,000 to 32,000 positions will not be filled after old employees leave next year, which means the same number of civil servants will be slashed, Woerth told the local newspaper Les Echos. It will be an unprecedented effort made by the French government and is quite close to the staff cut goal which will hire only one person after two retirees. Posted by: Fred 2008-07-12 |
