The french enjoy the shortest working week in Europe(35hrs) along with the longest average paid holidays (30 days ) ,workers rights in France are unfairly biased in so many ways towards the worker and they still would be even if the unions lose this round of strikes and workers lose some protections .Our workers rights are relatively evenly balanced ,more similar to those in the rest of Europe,they will not change should we leave the EU
