French Prime Minister Manuel Valls unveiled measures on the 11 April 2016 to help young people into work, in response to weeks of protests against proposed reforms to labour laws.

Valls made the proposals in a meeting with eight youth organisations that opposed the reforms, including the biggest student union, UNEF.
