The French law of 6 August 2019 on the transformation of the civil service aims in particular to promote a more strategic and effective form of social dialogue while respecting the guarantees of public officials. To this end, it has profoundly changed the presentation of social data within each administration or public establishment by replacing the Social Report (“Bilan Social”) with a Single Social Report (“Rapport Social Unique” – RSU) whose scope is intended to be broader than the current Social Report.
The RSU will eventually have to accommodate an enhanced number of indicators, and takes its name from what it will now group within a single document, i.e. the data traditionally presented in the social report, in health and safety reports and in the gender comparison report.
The new system will also implement a social database (“Base de Données Sociales” – BDS) starting from 1 January 2023, compiling all the indicators provided for legally. The purpose of this BDS will be to feed the RSU. It will be available for consultation to the members of the Social Administration Committee, a body that will be elected and installed at the end of 2022 to replace the current health, safety and working conditions committee (CHSCT) and technical committee.
The first Single Social Report, covering 2021, has been approved in the Board of Directors on 23 June 2022. It is available on the ENT.
Given the large number of existing indicators to be enriched and new indicators to be created (in accordance with the order of 7 May 2021), the new system cannot be fully constituted in a single year. The changes and additions made to the RSU 2021 compared with the previous social reports therefore mainly concern a more systematic presentation of all information by gender, and the integration of a detailed analysis of the pay gaps between women and men.
