INTRODUCTION In France, employment law affords employees a good level of protection. Nevertheless, this legal environment is constantly changing as a result of government reforms and case law evolution. Recent trends relate in particular to: (1) union representation and collective bargaining agreements; (2) working time; (3) mutual termination agreements; (4) senior management compensation; and (5) termination packages in listed companies. In France, choosing the wrong option may result in costly individual or collective litigation. • the Labour Code: made up of laws, regulations 2.

  • Discrimination Law in France
    Discrimination Law in France Discrimination Law In France Pascal Lokiec University Paris XIII The principle of non discrimination is a core aspect of French labour law. The sources of discrimination law are diverse. The first is constituted of EC law, that has largely determined the French law of discrimination. The second comes from the French constitution. The principle of non discrimination has constitutional value, by virtue of the Preamble to the Constitution of 1946 that prohibits discrimination with regard to criteria of sex, race, belief and trade union activity, and of the current Constitution (1958) that contains a provision according to which "the nation ensures equality before the law of all citizens, whatever their ethnic origin, race or religion (article 2). Moving from the Constitution to statute law, the labour code contains several provisions on discrimination, especially a provision that lists all grounds of prohibited discrimination: article L 122-45. Two preliminary remarks are necessary. First, French labour law has largely been influenced by EC law relative to discrimination, and the case law of the European Court of Justice is at least as important as that of the Cour de cassation to understand the law of discrimination applicable in France. Second, although discrimination law has considerably increased in importance in French law, due to the influence of the European Union, French labour law is not built around discrimination law. And the focus on discrimination is regularly criticised in the name of workers protections. For instance, an attempt has been made to see harassment as an issue of sex discrimination, which would certainly have weakened the law of harassment, especially the possibility to rule against psychological harassment which is not at first a problem of discrimination.

The results cast light on the claim that legal origin, or the influence of common law and civil law regulatory styles, affects the content of labour law regimes. We find some divergence between common law and civil law countries at the aggregate level but a more complex picture when the index is decomposed so as to identify changes in specific areas of labour law. We discuss the potential significance of this relatively new approach to the measurement of law for understanding the forces at work in the evolution of labour law.

  • French Labour Law Reforms a Friendlier Legal Landscape
    French labour law reforms A friendlier legal landscape On 23 September 2017 the French government adopted administrative orders setting out details of the labour law reforms on which consultation had been under way since the election of Emmanuel Macron as president in May. The changes are intended to tackle unemployment, and stimulate France’s economy by providing a simpler and more secure set of rules for employers and investors. The most important reforms relate to rules on termination of employment, employee representation and collective negotiation. We summarise the main changes below: Termination of employment A cap set on damages for unfair dismissal Previously the amount of damages that a labour court could award for unfair dismissal was unlimited, and the minimum for an employee with at least two years’ service was six months’ pay. The reforms provide that both minima and maxima will apply. The minimum (again after two years’ service) has been reduced to three months, and lower minima apply in companies with fewer than 11 employees. The maximum ranges from one to 20 months’ gross pay, depending upon length of service: for service up to seven years, the maximum award is one month’s pay per year plus an extra month, and thereafter the maximum increases more slowly (e.g. 10 months’ pay for 10 years’ service, 15.5 months’ pay for 20 years). It should be assumed that for these purposes “gross pay” means total remuneration including variable pay and benefits in kind, though this remains to be confirmed. The new maxima do not apply in certain circumstances (e.g.

  • 12/13 Forced Labour
    National Regulations DECENTWORKCHECK.ORG 01/13 Work & Wages Regulations on work and wages: French Labour Code, Consolidated Version on 25 December 2013 Decree No. 2013-1190 of 19 December 2013 Minimum Wage The wage paid by the employer cannot be less than the national minimum wage (SMIC). In 2013, the gross monthly SMIC, for a 35-hour working week, is €1,430.22. The collective agreement applicable to the contract of employment may also specify a minimum wage depending on the employee's classification (Employment & Labour Law 2013). Employee participation in the economic development of the nation is assured by fixing the minimum wage each year with effect from 1 January (Article L3231-6). The minimum wage applies to all salaried workers, including those working in both public and private businesses of an industrial or commercial nature. (Article L3231-1). The national minimum wage (SMIC) can be adjusted in two ways: indexing of SMIC to the consumer price index (CPI) so that when the CPI increases by at least 2%, minimum wage is increased by the same percentage and the setting of a new SMIC by Government through a decree following the opinion of National Committee on Collective Agreements. The Committee is made up four representatives each from government, workers and employers side. The criteria for increase in the minimum wage takes into account the needs of workers and their families; cost of living in the country; level of wages and income in the country; and economic . Regular Pay In accordance with Article L3241-1 of the Labour Code, an employer is under the obligation to pay the worker his/her wages in cash or by crossed check or by transfer to a bank or postal account.

  • Muslim Immigration in France: an Interdisciplinary Exploration
    2 Muslim Immigration in France: An Interdisciplinary Exploration A thesis submitted to the Miami University Honors Program in partial fulfillment of the requirements for University Honors with Distinction by Kathleen Joelle Guiler May 2007 Oxford, Ohio 3 Abstract Muslim Immigration in France: An Interdisciplinary Exploration By Kathleen J. Guiler In November 2005, the world watched in shock as protests and riots broke out in the outskirts of many of France’s cities. Although many groups were involved in the riots, they were closely linked to France’s Muslim community. Many of young people involved in the riots, though not devout themselves, came from families that have emigrated from traditionally Muslim countries. This is just one is a long series of clashes between French Muslims and France’s majority. For example, in 2004 young Muslim women in France found themselves in the international spotlight when they insisted on their right to adopt the hijab and wear headscarves in public schools. While these conflicts have varied in terms of severity, they all set forth a similar set of questions, particularly ones that examine underlying issues in an attempt to stop violent confrontations. These questions are so broad and complicated that they necessitate a similarly wide-ranging approach. Therefore, this paper is not traditional in the sense that it does not have a single guiding thesis statement followed by a review of existing literature, a presentation of new evidence, and a conclusion. Rather, it is divided into three parts that address the issue of Muslim immigration from a variety of angles. Each of these sections has a slightly different focus with related conclusions; however when read as a whole, this paper will give the reader a broad but thorough understanding of the recent conflicts in France.
