''Note:'' Only labour day (May 1st) is a public holiday by statute. The rest of the holidays are granted by ''convention collective'' (agreement between employers' and employees' unions) or by agreement of the employer. 1: The Raffarin administration has suppressed Pentecost as a Public Holiday for state public workers, and has authorized private companies to add one working day to their schedule, starting from 2005. This scheme is meant to raise money for a fund for the elderly and handicapped. This action and its legality were controversial and it is unknown whether it will still be current in 2006. |
