00:12 and an increase in remuneration
00:14 thanks to a monthly income of 300 euros
00:17 from the circulation business.
00:18 Needlemen are key players in the railway network,
00:20 which ensures the safety and regularity of trains
00:23 every day on 30,000 km of railway lines.
00:26 Their starting salary is only 23,479 euros gross per year,
00:29 or about 1,480 euros net per month.

00:35 in view of the responsibilities that a trade union has.
00:37 Vincent Pinault, Federal Secretary of the Southern Railway and Needlemen for 27 years,
00:41 explains that the working conditions are very hard
00:43 with a lot of shifts.
00:45 Indeed, these professionals work weekends and holidays.
00:48 In addition, their job involves a 3-8 shift,
00:50 that is, they work on the same post for 24 hours
00:53 per 8-hour shift each.
00:55 The remuneration evolution is existing, but remains limited.
00:58 After 33 years of age, it goes to 27,658 euros,
01:02 or 2,270 euros gross per month.
