🇬🇧 English

This notice starts the process to make several wage amendments mandatory for all employers and employees covered by specific agricultural and forestry collective agreements in France. The affected agreements cover forestry operations, agricultural sawmills, livestock and meat cooperatives, and agricultural cooperatives in fresh produce, processed foods, flax-hemp processing, and dehydration. Interested parties have 15 days to submit comments. Representative employer organizations covered by the relevant amendments have one month to file a written objection. Employers in the listed sectors should review the wage amendments because, if extended, the pay terms will apply across the covered workplaces, not only to the original signatories.
