Vote for Macron law: the key measures – France Bleu

The debates were to last two weeks, but they were so rich that MPs are finally began taking an extra week, sacrificing them even their weekend. Tuesday, the Macron Bill “growth, activity and equal economic opportunity” will finally be put to the vote of the National Assembly , with its 200 articles.

Sunday work

This is the last chunk of the bill to be voted on Saturday. The number of Sunday openings authorized shops from 5 to 12 a year, by decision of the mayor. These Sundays are paid twice. The text provides for the creation of “tourist areas”, “commercial areas” and “international tourist areas” (ZTI), where the shops will be open every Sunday. The businesses experiencing a busy stations will also have this possibility. Compensations are planned to be established by sectoral agreement, company or territorial. In these areas, volunteering is mandatory for employees to work.



The regulated legal professions
