The CGT, CFE-CGC, FCE-CFDT and Forces Ouvrieres (FO) unions already held a first day of strikes last week, hitting EDF’s nuclear energy output. In a joint statement on Monday they were envisaging more industrial action on Dec. 10 if they received no proposal to meet Castex.
The French government is working on a plan, called project “Hercules”, to ringfence EDF’s nuclear arm from the rest of the power giant and is in talks with Brussels on the matter. That has raised concerns over jobs among employees, fearful that a strict split between EDF businesses could mean cuts.
