In other matters: the 35 hour week
Leaving aside our fellow with the challenges in literacy and logic, I am pleased to note that the tide is turning against the 35 hour week. Perhaps we shall see more labor market rigities chipped away in the near future (although the Bosch vote is perhaps being overread here).
I remain puzzled then that the government here adopted the 35 hour week for the summer for (and I quote) "climactic reasons."
I suppose the relevant minister is looking to achieve new lows in productivity.
Oh yes, why the importance of the French event? Because it's a benchmark around here.
