Bullshit. You can find official unemployment figures here : https://www.insee.fr/fr/statistiques/3676628?sommaire=3696937 https://www.insee.fr/fr/statistiques/3676628?sommaire=369693.... 35h workweek has been voted in 2000 and started enforcement in 2002. Unemployment has increased uninterruptedly between 2001 and 2005. It decreased between 2000 and 2001, but it was part of a decreasing trend that started in 1997.
