The tension mounts assistance public hospitals of Paris (AP - HP), first employer of Ile-de-France, with 90,000 caregivers including 20,000 officers, consisting of 37 hospitals in Paris and small Crown. After having presented the medical bodies framing multi-year future strategic plan 2010-2014, which includes deleting nearly 3,500 stations here in 2012 and about 1,200 in 2013 and 2014, the Director-General, Benoît Leclercq, the release Friday to Union representatives in central institution (EMTC) Technical Committee, triggering the General displeasure.

"This collective effort is 90 to 100 million euros per year until 2012, generally the equivalent of 1,000 jobs not renewed over more than 20,000 natural departures during the same period", says the AP - HP, whose annual budget is of the order of EUR 6 billion. To achieve a balanced, Benoît Leclercq account for 20 increase in the recettes - "a realistic forecast" which he refuses to engage, for example knowing that activity projections in 2009 have not reached - and 80 on the reduction of expenditure, in which the payroll accounted for 70. "We also maintain the level of investment for the strategic plan 2010-2014, without never exceeding 30 debt EUR 450 million per year."
