“It is an unbearable pressure, the feeling of no longer worth a nail”

TESTIMONS – The clichés on the unemployed still have hard skin and some job seekers are faced with an additional difficulty: their age. At 57, Catherine recounts her experience in Capital. © Westend61 / Getty Images – Egism and unemployment, a difficult accumulation in the job search … safeguard safeguarded receiving unemployment alerts one in three unemployed declares to face criticism on a daily basis. In its barometer in November 2024, oneédic alerted to the tenacity of the prejudices associated with an unemployment period. Many unemployed people undergo contemptuous remarks on a daily basis, are criticized for a form of assistantship or laziness. As proof, the study indicates that 32% of respondents think that the unemployed are “assisted”. 6 out of 10 French people even believe that the unemployed have difficulty finding work because they do not make a concession in their job search. Judgments which can weigh heavily on the morale of the main concerned … These prejudices, Catherine Fontanel, dismissed at 50 years of a large group, was able to apprehend them during her retraining: “This unbearable societal pressure that accompanies unemployment often gives the impression of being on the verge of society, of no longer worth a nail …” Today in training, it denounces a structural obstacle which penalizes the most experienced workers: Ageism.

There is a real taboo around this discrimination that no one speaks, at least openly, ”deplores the former customer service manager. An inconsistency and “hypocrisy” all the greater according to her since some large groups “most of the time show an attitude of often radical rejection towards seniors, not even giving them an interview regardless of the relevance of their CV. These companies do not take into account all soft skills that a more experienced person can bring. ” As a reminder, according to a study carried out in 2023 by DARES – statistical organization attached to the Ministry of Labor -, in France, only 58.4% of the over 50s are in employment … Very little professional integration for seniorsuns a feeling fueled according to her by large companies, where age is sometimes a major obstacle in recruitment: “In these structures, it is very difficult to enter if one does not meet certain strict criteria. Age is an additional brake because companies think that we are going to get sick more easily, cost more, not to be productive enough… ”, estimates Catherine Fontanel. This rejection also feeds another problem: assessment by senior job seekers of their own skills on the job market. “Many unemployed people undergo under the effect of stress and urgency to find a position, which is regrettable in terms of what they could bring,” she regrets. Today, after several years in humanitarian, Catherine wants to resume the path of the office, but not anyhow. For her, out of the question to return to a structure that no longer suits her, “where, after 45 years, we are considered to be ‘old’, obsolete employees”.
