So France is BROKEN DOWN and needs to restart........ and they are doing this by getting rid of SOCIALIST IDEAS Love it!
And of course the LABOR UNIONS Donlt like the idea
So Broke France offered Overtime Tax Breaks for Businesses to lessen impact but would not entertain repealing it! Throwing money they don't have at a problem is familiar to us here in the states as of late isn't it



French Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault states!

The shift to a shorter work week was the flagship reform of the Socialist government that ruled France during a boom at the end of the 1990s.
Many employers say it bloated labour costs and blunted their ability to compete in world markets.
