On 21 July the draft law ‘concerning working time organization and modifying the Labor Code’ that was adopted by the Council of Ministers on 01 July was delivered to the Chamber of Deputies the 21th. New departures contained in the text are now accessible.
The draft law’s explanatory statement indicated the desire for the text to strike a balance between respecting business interests and protecting workers. In this vein, Article L.211-1 is completed by a provision that draws on Germany’s working time law, the ‘Arbeitszeitgesetz’: “the provisions of this text aim to ensure on the one hand that businesses operate effectively with jobs growth, and on the other hand that workers’ health and safety are protected and that they have good working conditions.”
