The budget equation of the government, which was already not easy, still a little complicated. The Budget Ministry announced Friday that the government deficit stood late April to 66.8 billion against 59.9 billion in late April 2012. This gap technical explanations that Bercy is careful to remember: he would first collection in early 2012 of 2.6 billion euros in revenues from the licensing of mobile 4G, perception, by definition, will not happen in 2014, the capital increase of the European investment1 Bank (EIB) for $ 1.6 billion, then, to the endowment of 3.3 billion European Stability Mechanism (MES2), finally.

Beyond these elements exceptional, damage also due to the "low tax revenues, 'the services of Bernard Cazeneuve3. A more worrying because structural element. The economic downturn of the early slowed tax revenue. In the first four months of the year, they are virtually unchanged from the same period in 2012 (90.8 billion against $ 91 billion in 2012). In detail, the income tax receipts are the only progress in a year: 11%. Unlike those of VAT, which account for half of government revenues, decreased by 2.3% – in line with the slowdown in household consumption – those of corporate tax of 5 8% and the domestic consumption tax on energy products, by 6.1%.

"The overall trend of net tax revenue has a bear hazard compared with the forecasts presented in the stability program, debated in Parliament in mid-April," admits the Budget Ministry, speaking of "sluggishness of VAT revenue and domestic tax on energy products. "

Only on VAT revenue if the shift "is maintained throughout the year, the deficit compared to the initial target would be $ 10.8 billion, or half a percentage point of GDP," has calculated COE -Rexecode. 

Expenditure savings

Figures released yesterday confirm, if necessary again that France had so much need of the two-year period granted by the European Commission4. In fact, the initial commitments of the government deficit – to fall below 3% of GDP – based on the assumption of a budget balance reduced to 62.3 billion end of 2013 (end of 2012 against 87.1 billion). A balance that would never have been reached

.

Now the executive expects a deficit of 3.7% of GDP this year. And for the rest, it is no longer compulsory levies which will enable it to meet its commitments. "After wearing mostly stress on revenue increases in 2012 and 2013, the government will focus on the adjustment of public spending savings," promises the government in its stability program.

Advanced does not forget. Although the government has promised to end the day STAFF1 deficiency (non-payment of the first day of sick leave), the reasons for discontent accumulate for unions to the public. Marylise Lebranchu2, the Minister of Public Service, the met Friday to discuss the modernization of publique3 share (MAP), that is to say, the reform of the public sphere. "For us, the MAP is a continuation of the general revision of policies Government4 (RGPP) by Nicolas Sarkozy5. We are particularly worried about the very organization of the state into regions, "alert Christian Grolier of FO6. Fillon7 The team has already restructured state administrations (sport, ecology, social action …) present regional and departmental level by merging several directions. But the government wants to make the system more efficient. Meanwhile, he is considering an overhaul of the map subprefectures threatening those located in urban areas. Finally, a draft law on decentralization provides for the creation of multi-site utilities and companies like The Poste8. In short, reorganizations ahead. Decisions will be made in the summer, once given early July several reports on these topics. "You can imagine building more versatile poles, clusters," says Will in the entourage of Marylise Lebranchu. Where we add: ". But we will not give up the territories"

"For us, the MAP is a continuation of the general revision of public policies Nicolas Sarkozy. We are particularly worried about the very organization of the state into regions "

Christian Grolier, FO Improving public service

Nevertheless, more generally, the MAP worried cash advance to savings account. And, although the Government reiterates that this reform is based on assessments and aimed primarily at improving the functioning of public services. "Officers are struggling to make the connection between speech evaluation and the reality of their daily lives, is to delete numbers," says, with some understatement, Brigitte Jumel, the CFDT9. Christian Grolier, FO, attack him directly to the Government: "The job cuts continue at the same pace as Nicolas Sarkozy in non-priority ministries. Thus, 2060 positions will disappear again in taxes. "In fact, to stabilize the workforce, despite the creation of jobs for Education, justice, the police and the gendarmerie, the government plans to cut 12,000 jobs in other departments there in 2013.

All this is grafted to the number one disappointment: the treatments. The index point, which is the basis for the remuneration of officials, was raised for the last time in July 2010. Returned to power, the left has maintained a freeze. Marylise Lebranchu and announced that the upcoming discussions on the subject will be held mid-2014.

FO considering actions in September, while the CFDT remnant according Brigitte Jumel, "a dynamic of negotiations."

 

First quarter accounts TF11 plunged into the red. The private audiovisual group chaired by Nonce Paolini released an operating loss of € 15.7 million and a net loss after minority interests of 6.3 million. Advertising revenues were down 12%.

LE FIGARO. – You have changed the way to present your accounts. Is it bad to underestimate your results for the quarter?

Nonce Paolini. – This makes no sense! TF1 accounts are public and audited. The truth is that for about three years, given the variety of group activities, financial statement no longer reflects how the group develops. This change in presentation, many major European groups have also adopted, is an effort to further transparency.

The results of the advertising group, down 12%, were punished Exchange last week. What is your analysis?

This is a bad performance we can not be satisfied! But all media now suffering from the economic situation. We face strong pressure from advertisers and their wait. Added to this is a competitive situation without precedent in France: the market for free TV clash sees no fewer than 25 channels owned by nine different operators. Finally, in the context of hyper-fragmentation of supply, we face a fierce price war clearly triggered by one of our competitors. Also, the results can not be good.

You mean your competitor M6 Group

.

While the market continues to be seen for several months. While lowering prices, the M6 ​​Group in step with the decline in hearing both antennas M62 and W93. He practices comparable to Freeview promotions. This is normal because its main chain became the first chain TNT4! But embarking on a wild ride that collapses as the price is destructive of value. And this is in the interest of person or televisions, or the advertisers who need media healthy! It is not the viewers who could face a decline in the supply of programs if reason does not prevail!

Are there not a paradox in your hearings have rebounded over the last nine months and your bottom line?

This does not affect, in any case, the strategy that we have set ourselves: to offer premium advertising space to advertisers. With an average audience of 23.4% during the day, unique in Europe, we offer exceptional opportunities for contacts, no other channel can offer: the TF1's audience is more than twice that of M6! In addition, TMC5 resists and NT16 increased despite the increased fragmentation of the offer. HD17 and is head of six new channels launched last December. Also, the TF1 group, with our success in the digital, has the most advantages to benefit from any economic revival. What we want and what we succeed, is to touch the widest possible and not we focus on one target on which women M6 and most Freeview cannibalize public. Because it is simply forget all the other viewers who are also prescribers and economic actors! In short, it is not only the famous housewife under fifty who decides purchases home. The company has evolved. Also continue to offer programs that bring together the largest number we go. I would add that, unlike our competitors, we are severely handicapped by the obligation to sell the advertising of our four channels via two different boards. It will not be the case in 2015.

Jo was lovely audience scores during the broadcast of the first episode, a little less in the second. Should we rethink your strategy international fiction?

There are hearings France who works and those of France bridges. Also, both Jo hearings are not comparable. And they are above average! Beyond this series, you should know that for several years the French fictions are heavily loss: revenue not balance their cost, which has been growing! They mainly affect older audiences while the American series are full of a younger audience that advertisers consider the most interesting. The stakes are high for our cultural exception! And international co-productions are a very interesting way.

"Koh-Lanta8" was a strong brand TF1. After the tragedy that affected the show, do you replace it?

We were deeply shocked. Today there is a preliminary investigation in progress and it is only in the light of its conclusions TF1 determine. The death of our candidate is a tragedy, and we now know he had a heart defect that was fatal. To me, if there is a "Koh-Lanta" matter is that the suicide of Dr. Costa. He was the victim of a heinous media lynching. Most shocking is that his death has left marble perpetrators of these terrible accusations! You know, our mission and our goal is to inform and entertain. And death should never be at the rendezvous emissions we prepare.

Aurélie Filippetti, Minister of Culture and Communication, plans for its future bill to reform the rules to improve advertising revenue channels. What do you think?

Successive governments have increased the errors favoring oversupply television. We measure the disastrous effects on the health of the audiovisual sector, that is to say, its funding and suddenly its creative dynamism. We have emphasized throughout recent months with government on several changes needed in this area: for example, the terms of sponsorship, advertising and prohibited areas creating a shopping channel. On these three points, it seems that we have been heard.

This bill also provides for dust relations between TV channels and producers. What do you expect?

All stakeholders agree: we need a rebalancing of economic relations between broadcasters and producers. We all have an interest in creating a new heritage of works that can at once to collect the larger public but also to reap the benefits internationally. It should help us build the audiovisual gives future. And my motto is that you have a fiction that is exported. This rebalancing will require a new deal with the recovery of such shares in favor of co-chains, with the opportunity to invest in the creation taking stakes in production companies, which implies a new division between dependent and independent generation . Finally, it is necessary that our obligations in a broader European space co is allowed. Series like Jo or Crossing Lines, which will be broadcast on American network NBC Universal this summer, are successful abroad before France! In short, we must give the means to be conquerors!

From June, all employees working remotely Yahoo! will return to the office. This is a confidential internal email sent last Friday to all employees, who spread the news. It was released by angry employees on a specialized blog.

The decision of the CEO Marissa Mayer is well justified: "Some of the best information comes from making and schmoozing and cafeteria, meeting new people, impromptu team meetings. The speed and quality may be sacrificed when working at home. (…) It is essential that we all present at the office.

In times of crisis, the evaluation of employees may turn to the puzzle. Means available to managers are reduced to a trickle: training budget and increases down, freeze internal mobility, generating complex reorganizations in some companies a climate of mistrust … "Assess serenity is more difficult," says Sylvie Brunet, a member of the National Association of HRD (ANDRH) and Director of Social Affairs at Onet.

However, the evaluation issue is still crucial for companies seeking to maintain their results and re-engage their employees. "In companies that go wrong, maintenance is even more important: even if the room for maneuver is limited, this is one of the rare moments when it is possible to explain the meaning of the corporate strategy , to the pedagogy, "she adds.

Listening, the ability to bounce

Crisis requires, means companies are more focused on high-potential employees, they can not afford to lose. Especially when they reorganize, they seek to avoid the best to leave. If 85% of the French employers have reduced or froze their training expenses, according to Accenture, half consider themselves alongside a shortage of talent.

SHL, one of the leaders of the evaluation activity for employees is rising, while focusing on recruitment has completely collapsed. "The talent identification goes a long way to the top of the organization. Today, it also applies to managers and executives. This is a direct consequence of the crisis, "said Stéphane Amiot, director of SHL France and Belgium. Programs targeting sales forces are by far the most requested. "The successful business in times of crisis have qualities – listening, the ability to bounce example – the company wants to encourage," says Stéphane Amiot.

The use of premium

The observation applies not only to commercial. The crisis is more amenable to behavioral assessment, alongside results alone, on which the employee has less grip. "Since 2008-2009, behavioral skills, such as creativity, the ability to communicate or take advantage of a situation, are more prevalent in the evaluation grid," says Jocelyne Ientile-Yalenios, lecturer at EM Strasbourg.

This does not prevent some companies to tighten their requirements in parallel on the achievement of objectives. "The crisis has accelerated the use of premium, strengthened links between performance and variable compensation," says David Guillocheau, managing partner in the consulting firm HR Talentys. The notation is also applied more severe. Illustrated by the example of Atos, which recently considered its employees too highly rated.

So that the evaluation is becoming stressor. "Before the crisis, we were mostly asked to accompany its implementation. But since it occurs mainly because it goes wrong, says Anne-Florence Beauvois, director of Sextant Council, which accompanies the HSC. The interview is not so much an opportunity to talk with his manager that employees plébiscitaient, a way to sort the employees based on their performance. "With the key, sometimes the prospect of layoffs.

Considered the possibility Friday is now confirmed. The direction of Virgin Megastore said Tuesday morning that it will file the results tomorrow before the Commercial Court of Paris. The announcement was made before several elected council, met for the second time to examine "the draft declaration of insolvency" of the company in financial difficulty.

Union representatives said they refused to give an opinion, but said that management believes they had a negative opinion, which enables it to override. "The Chair (Virgin, Christine Mondollot) will go to court business," said Jean-Luc know Breyne elected CGT EC AFP. An administrator will then be appointed, which will focus on the fate of some 1,000 employees of the brand, which has 26 stores.  

Trade unions believe that Virgin has not the means to finance a social plan and call for its majority shareholder (74%), the investment fund Butler Capital Partners. Laurent Paqueret, a representative of the fund, was present at EC Tuesday morning to answer employees' questions. But, according to Guy Olharan (CGT), they "encountered an end of inadmissibility" on his part. "Butler refuses to take responsibility for financing the social aspect of everything that will unfortunately follow," he lamented on behalf of the elected EC.

"All possibilities discussed"

In the entourage of funds, it is argued that "Virgin of cash and assets, it may assign to finance socially." The brand has already recovered 20 million since 2008 by selling leases several stores, including those at Bordeaux Merignac and the Louvre. As it is expected to get its flagship store on the Champs-Élysées.

"The shareholders have invested $ 15 million in four years," said Butler also close, pointing out that such shareholder has reorganized the logistics and also opened stores (Saint Lazare in Paris, Rouen, Toulouse, for example).

The fund, which has successfully recovered Groupe Flo and France Mushrooms, defends himself by arguing that the distributor of cultural products was already in trouble in 2008, when he put his hand on it. He hoped to make a professional electronic games market has since returned, suffering from competition from the Internet. Revenue has not declined steadily from 371 million euros in 2008 to 313 million in 2011. Similarly, operating income remained negative since 2006.  

With the beginning of the process of filing for bankruptcy, the company will have a breath of fresh air because its debts are frozen. "All options will be considered," a close advance of funds. The most likely scenario, however, seems outright end of the sign, with a further assignment of leases of stores.

According to our information, patterns of partial recovery by competitors or partnerships with other distributors or brands have indeed been studied without success. The arrival of Virgin stores in Système U has been considered, but the project was not successful. Virgin was able, however, to implement a few corners in shops on BP motorway service areas last summer, but it was not enough to get the boat afloat.
