What CFE-CGC Occitanie does

CFE-CGC Occitanie is the regional trade union (union régionale) of the Confédération CFE-CGC for the Occitanie region in southern France, headquartered at Le Tertial, 214 route de Saint-Simon in Toulouse. It represents executive and managerial employees (encadrement) — including executives, managers, supervisory staff, and engineers working across the private sector — through 13 departmental unions spanning Ariège (09), Aude (11), Aveyron (12), Gard (30), Haute-Garonne (31), Gers (32), Hérault (34), Lot (46), Lozère (48), Hautes-Pyrénées (65), Pyrénées-Orientales (66), Tarn (81), and Tarn-et-Garonne (82). The organization operates on a non-profit, member-funded revenue model in which membership dues (cotisations syndicales) are set by affiliated syndicates and federations, set typically around 1% of salary, and qualify for French income tax credits or deductions.

The organization's service offering is not technology-led; it consists of four core products: (1) union training via the Centre de formation syndicale (CFS), delivered at Toulouse and Montpellier offices on subjects including union mandates, employee savings, and psychosocial risks; (2) legal assistance and protection, delivered through a contract partnership with Macif covering professional and union life; (3) publications, including the monthly Le bulletin confédéral and topical guides/memos (e.g., on whistleblower protection, professional equality, disability and digital); and (4) information services and FAQ support delivered through the regional website and departmental contact channels.

CFE-CGC Occitanie operates within the federated structure of Confédération CFE-CGC (founded 1968 in Paris), which spans 230 syndicates, 27 federations, 96 departmental unions, 10,000+ union sections, and 18 regional unions nationally. The regional union is led by Présidente Marie-Line Brugidou (also serving as webmaster), with Secrétaire Général Didier Cassassolles and Trésorier Jean-Michel Lacheze. Strategic and ESG positioning is set at the confederation level, including first-mover trade union memberships in the UN Global Compact France (2018-02-01) and the French Office for Biodiversity's 'Partenaire engagé pour la nature' program, alongside participation in the Plateforme RSE attached to France Stratégie. There are no funding rounds, M&A, or external ownership relationships; governance rests with member-elected representatives.
