Overview
- Le Point's leadership confirmed a Plan de Sauvegarde de l’Emploi (PSE) that will cut 58 jobs, including 32 permanent employees and 26 freelancers, from its 200-person editorial staff.
- The restructuring follows €5.6 million in losses in 2024 and aims to transition the magazine's economic model from print reliance to a more sustainable approach.
- The plan includes 18 new positions, with some filled through internal reclassifications, but details on these roles remain limited.
- AI tools are expected to replace many roles in the correction and revision departments, which will see substantial reductions, leaving only four staff members to supervise AI outputs.
- Negotiations with unions are underway, with the PSE set to begin with voluntary departures and full implementation planned for fall 2025.
