Les “lois Aubry” relatives aux 35 heures, ou l'irrésistible ascension de la flexibilité

Abstract

The french laws of the 35 hours of work per week encourage the flexible use of the labour force. They have lost their primary spirit which was the increase of the volume of employment, associated with the raise of the purchasing power of workers and the development of new activities linked to free time. This policy, inspired by Keynes, gives today a larger place to the market for the benefit of employers who can manage the work on an annual basis and call on precarious employees services in order to contain production costs and increase profits.
