Over the past nine years, French trade unions have seen a decline of 370,000 members. Despite this drop, they have received an additional 20 million euros in funding, sourced from employee salaries and state coffers. In 2023 alone, unions such as CFDT, CGT, and FO collectively benefited from 96 million euros, which constitutes a 25% increase in public financing. This financial support has allowed unions to maintain their revenue streams even as membership dwindles.

Each year, CFDT, CGT, FO and others note a decline in the ranks of their members. But this loss does not affect the coffers, because a public financing mechanism allows unions to share even more: 96 million euros in 2023, or 25% https://t.co/1wQ1XUuX7o
