As the 2024 Olympics games in Paris approach, thousands of workers in Paris are seeking extra pay and benefits to compensate them for working during the summer months. Working during the 2024 Olympic games means that many employees will not go on their summer holiday. Workers in various sectors are seeking pay increases and bonuses, including metro workers, security guards, nurses, and many others. Metro workers are represented by the CGT trade union, and the union announced the potential for strike action if workers are not given raises. The French government will provide police officers with a bonus of 1900 euros, a higher amount than the government initially planned to give out. The French government is hoping that protests and other industrial action will not occur during the Olympic games and disrupt the event for spectators.
