This deserves a post of its own.

And they know how to build guillotines.

I think the issue is not about applying DEI in French companies, nor it exist. The problem is a foreigner leader telling an independent country how he should manage his companies, or at least, to foreign companies how they should hire people.
You can't be a libertarian from one side and tell such things... until you want to fire every human and make every company in the world running with Musk AI and robots ... -

Interesting, thanks for sharing.
I understand this to mean that job adverts shouldn't explicitly target DEI hires. That is not, however, the same as not implementing DEI targets in a company.
The intelligent way to implement DEI has always been to interview and identity the top candidates for a role, and then if you have 2 capable and competent candidates and one is a women / minority, they get the job. This law wouldn't prevent that.
wrote 27 days ago last edited byFrench companies do have to implement "DEI" policies by law. In France, companies have to monitor inequalities between men and women (in hiring opportunities, salary, promotions, autonomy, etc) and implement plans to reduce them (they can't discriminate on job adverts, but can take other actions). They also have to hire a certain proportion of people with disabilities.

He invented the idea of an explosion powered guillotine blade. Perfect for a rocket warhead.
