In terms of social regulations, there are many new developments at the beginning of the year. 

This technical note outlines the social security parameters (employer contribution rates, Fillon reductions and remuneration) applicable to road passenger transport in 2024.

In addition, the National Road Committee calculates the economic impact of this new social context on the cost of school transport driving personnel in January 2024 and, more broadly, on the cost price of vehicles. These assessments take into account the latest wage agreement of 16 October 2023.

Staffing costs for school TRV transport (salaries and social security contributions) rose significantly in January 2024: 

• +6.5% over the past month
• +19.6% over the past year

This inflation has a significant impact on the total cost price of a vehicle: around +6% over 12 months for a standard coach used for school transport.
