Les hausses « volontaires » du Smic, rares malgré une progression de 84,6 % en 25 ans
Le Smic a progressé de 84,6 % en vingt-cinq ans, mais l'essentiel de ces hausses découle des revalorisations légales annuelles liées à l'inflation ; les coups de pouce volontaires se comptent sur une main.

Story angles
This event does not yet have its own comparison: here is the story's 1.6% minimum wage increase: reactions and debate in the National Assembly.
The three sides cover the same 1.6% minimum wage increase, but the left emphasizes the inadequacy of the measure and the trade union split, the center mainly relays political reactions and exchanges in the National Assembly, the right highlights the effects on businesses and wage stagnation.
Left
Emphasis on the limited nature of the "boost" (24 euros, "crumbs", "scam"), on the trade union split after the CFDT, FO and CFTC abandoned the mobilization, and on the limited effects of the decree on contribution exemptions.
Centre
Relaying statements in the National Assembly and in the media (Farandou, LFI MP, Solidaires, CGT, government spokesperson), Jordan Bardella's proposals, and context on the frequency of voluntary minimum wage increases and the rising number of minimum wage earners.
Right
Emphasis on consequences for businesses and employers (labor costs, margins, job creation), on wage stagnation mentioned by RN elected officials, and a political reading of the measure as an abandonment of supply-side policy.
Common points
- =1.6% minimum wage increase on December 1, i.e. about 24 euros net per month
- =Publication of a decree reducing contribution exemptions for branches whose minimums are below the minimum wage
- =The CGT considers the increase insufficient and denounces "crumbs"
- =Defense of the measure by Labor Minister Jean-Pierre Farandou before MPs
Divergences
- ≠The left highlights the abandonment of the mobilization by the CFDT, FO and CFTC and speaks of "betrayal" or a fractured trade union front, an angle little present on the right and in the center
- ≠The right highlights concerns from employers and small businesses about labor costs, absent from left-wing articles
- ≠The center gives significant space to Jordan Bardella's proposals (indexation to inflation, 10% tax-exempt increase), which the left mentions only marginally
- ≠The left emphasizes the limits of the contribution exemption decree, while the center and right describe it mainly as a factual measure

Si le smic a progressé de 84,6 % en vingt-cinq ans, ces augmentations successives sont contraintes par la loi, qui prévoit chaque 1er janvier un rattrapage de l’inflation, les augmentations « volontaires » se comptent sur une main
