PARIS (Reuters) - France's main employers federation launched a withering attack on draft labour regulations on Thursday, saying changes made to reduce union opposition meant the proposals had become so convoluted they would not help create new jobs.
President Francois Hollande, who faces an election in 10 months' time, wants hiring and firing made easier to tackle high unemployment. A bill is set to go before the lower house of parliament for the last time next week despite the strong opposition from hardline trade unions, which argue it erodes workers rights.
