| Summary: | The great recession hit France with relatively low intensity, but the economy then experienced only a weak and late recovery. Despite the slowdown in productivity, the unemployment rate remained high, as did the various forms of underemployment. The recession accentuated the creation of short-term jobs and increased wage inequalities. Employment policy, which traditionally gave priority to the most disadvantaged groups in the labour market, began to prioritize the reduction of the cost of labour for business. The reforms of labour institutions mainly affected, in the first place, the representativeness of unions and employers' federations and the conditions of validity of collective agreements; secondly, the hierarchy of employment relationship rules; thirdly, the modes of representation of employees in the firm; fourthly, the conditions for termination of the employment contract. |
