Paris Bans Foreign Languages At Construction Sites To Protect Local Workers |
2017-03-11 |
[Daily Caller] The Paris region passed a law Thursday that bans foreign languages at construction sites to stop foreign labor. The "Small Business Act" wants to promote more public contracts for local businesses in the Ile de France region, which includes Paris. It includes a clause that makes it mandatory to use French as the working language at publicly-funded building projects. "This clause is necessary and targets foreign companies who come with their teams, without any of them speaking French," Jerome Chartier, the region’s vice president, told AFP. "These companies need to improve." Several French regions have already imposed similar language restrictions to promote local labor. |

#4 It's not just Moslem colonists, but workers from Eastern Europe as well. In Britain half of the problems that led to Brexit were due to migrants from EU countries taking jobs and welfare. |

#3 The safety aspect is why we require all workers on our jobsites to speak English. We don't want to spend 45 seconds telling folks to 'Get OUT!' in fifteen languages if a gas leak, a fire or explosion are imminent. |
