Many "no" advocators also feared that the charter will bring new competition from central and eastern Europe, where labor costs are lower, said analysts.
For the opposition camp, the constitution means damage to French economic model and Anglo-Saxon influence in the EU.
The charter enshrines an "ultra-liberal economic model which puts market interests ahead of social concerns, said opposers.
"To many voters, the treaty is a liberal charter, which puts our social system into question," said Stephane Rozes from the CSA polling group.
"If we vote for this treaty, we are denying ourselves the means to fight for job protection, wage levels and workers' living conditions," said Henri Emmanuelli, a Socialist of the "no" camp.
They said the charter makes EU's defense dependent on NATO, and therefore the United States.
"To many French people, this is directly liked to US policy, highlighting US imperialism in military and economic matters," said Sinean.
