On 24 November, French oil group TotalEnergies (formerly Total) and all its trade unions signed a new agreement on workplace equality. It grants the same rights to all families with regard to parenthood, strengthens support for parents and commits to providing emergency accommodation for victims of domestic violence.
Alongside carers and energy supply, workplace equality is a new collective bargaining topic at TotalEnergies, a year on from strikes and blockades of refineries over pay issues. After four meetings, the four unions at the energy group (CGT, CFE-CGC, CFDT and CAT) and company management have agreed to sign a new agreement on workplace equality, covering parenthood, pay, recruitment, training, the fight against discrimination and domestic violence.
