The minimum wage will not be abolished, assures Catherine Vautrin. Prime Minister Gabriel Attal announced on Tuesday a reform on low wages, to "'de-microcardiate' France", during his general policy declaration to the National Assembly.
“102 professions are affected today” by minimums below the minimum wage, the Minister of Labor, Health and Solidarity said. The government's stated objective is to ensure "that work is indeed a tool for emancipation", she further declared.
