Article D5424-40 of the French Labour Code

The decrees mentioned in article D. 5424-39 set each year the rates of contributions to be paid by companies and the amount of the reserve fund intended to ensure the reimbursement of bad weather daily allowances. When this amount is exceeded, the Board of Directors of the Caisse Nationale de Surcompensation may, if the Ministers responsible for Employment and the Economy, who have been informed in advance, have not made their opposition known within one month of receiving this information, reduce the companies’ contributions for the remainder of the year by up to 20% of the rates initially set.

Les arrêtés mentionnés à l’article D. 5424-39 fixent chaque année les taux de cotisations mises à la charge des entreprises et le montant du fonds de réserve destiné à assurer le remboursement des indemnités journalières d’intempéries. Lorsque ce montant est dépassé, le conseil d’administration de la Caisse nationale de surcompensation peut, lorsque les ministres chargés de l’emploi et de l’économie, préalablement informés, n’ont pas fait connaître leur opposition dans un délai d’un mois à compter de la réception de cette information, réduire pour le reste de l’année les cotisations des entreprises dans la limite de 20 % des taux initialement fixés.
