While the "Life at Work" reform aims for full employment in France by 2027, the shortage of skilled workers is reaching new peak figures. In some industries, entrepreneurs rate 61% of new hires as difficult, according to Pôle emploi 2023. Society is changing at a rapid pace. Economists agree that French employees are setting different priorities today than they did 40 years ago. Good working conditions and a balanced professional and private life are high on the agenda. If companies want to be attractive for the labor market, the flexible organization of working hours taking the individual needs of all age groups into account is of strategic importance.
