The central trade union delegate provided for in the first paragraph of Article L. 2143-5 has twenty-four hours per month to carry out his duties.
These hours are in addition to those he may have in a capacity other than that of establishment trade union delegate.
Unless there is a collective agreement to the contrary, when the elected or appointed staff representative is an employee mentioned in article L. 3121-58, the credit for hours is grouped into half-days which are deducted from the annual number of days worked set in the employee’s individual agreement. A half-day corresponds to four hours of office. When the remaining credit or fraction of the credit is less than four hours, the staff representative benefits from it under conditions defined by a decree of the Conseil d’Etat.
