<h3>Macron Law</h3>
<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1153" src="http://roadtransportconsultant-co-uk.stackstaging.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/france.png" alt="" width="284" height="278" />‘Macron Law’, introduced in July 2016, is to ensure formalities when operators post employees to France and to improve the access to information for French authorities.

Any workers posted to France must be paid at least the French minimum wage. The following are the basics that operator’s need to ensure:

Appoint a French representative to liaise with the authorities and hold copies of the necessary documentation

The workers must carry:

– Proof that they are paid the equivalent of the French minimum wage or higher
– Attestation of posting
– Employment contract

The representative in France must have the following during the posting and for an 18-month period after the posting:[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height="18"][unordered_list style="circle" animate="no"]
<ul>
 	<li>Attestation of posting</li>
 	<li>Pay-Slip (including details of pay items)</li>
 	<li>Any proof of payment</li>
 	<li>Copy of representative’s designation</li>
 	<li>Title of collective agreement (if applicable to worker)</li>
</ul>

The rule is being legally challenged on the basis that the rule may constitute a restriction on the free movement of goods which would breach Article 34 of the EU treaty. This is because the added administrative burden makes trading with France far more onerous.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/3"][vc_empty_space][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id="sidebar"][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation="" row_type="row" use_row_as_full_screen_section="no" type="full_width" angled_section="no" text_align="left" background_image_as_pattern="without_pattern"][vc_column][vc_empty_space height="82px"][/vc_column][/vc_row]
