French labor law, (IDCC 1686 )〕 which means that the average number of observed public holidays ''falling on weekdays'' is 8.7 and ranges from 7 to 10.〔French wikipédia〕 Most Asian countries and all North American countries observe between 2 and 10 more public holidays per year ''on weekdays''.〔Employee holiday entitlement around the world, (Mercer )〕 Public holidays in France are: ==Notes== See Fêtes et jours fériés en France (Wikipedia page in French), to have all the dates (French Overseas Departments (DOM) added). ''Note:'' French law dictates that work should stop, but be paid, only for the ''Fête du Travail'' (May Day, 1 May),〔Code du Travail, (L3133-4 )〕 except in industries where it is infeasible to stop working.〔Code du Travail, (L3133-6 )〕 The rest of the public holidays are listed in statute law,〔Code du Travail, (L3133-1 )〕 but law does not dictate that work should stop; however a leave from work may be granted by the employer or by ''convention collective'' (agreement between employers' and employees’ unions). In 2005, French prime minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin removed Whit Monday's status as a public holiday. The decision was eventually overruled by French courts in 2008. Employers are free to decide whether to make Whit Monday a day off or not.〔(LOI n° 2008-351 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Public holidays in France」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
