French SNCF to cut 1,000 jobs in 2015
(MENAFN) French rail company SNCF plans to cut more than 1,000 jobs according to its 2015 budget, despite recent price hikes aimed at improving service, AFP reported.
The train service operating unit SNCF Mobilites stands to lose around 1,600 posts in 2015, according to the budget, while the rail infrastructure management unit SNCF Reseau will gain 500 jobs.
The government agreed to ticket price hikes effective at the beginning of the year, citing the need to improve service quality, but Unsa said the job cuts will "lead to degradation in service".
