Absolutely, I agree 100% that one needs to have, first of all, a situation where workers can actually live a healthy life, as well, for a start. Healthy workers living healthy lives are actually better workers, and more productive workers and more beneficial to society as well. Without a shadow of a doubt, it cannot be the case that one works above 48 hours or one is out. Once that big stick is there, there is a dysfunction. The European Court of Justice 2004 ruling was mentioned. Can these specific agreements not be challenged under those illegalities?
