Article L2345-1 of the French Labour Code

When, as a result of a reduction in the workforce, the Community-scale undertaking or group of undertakings no longer meets the threshold conditions mentioned in Article L. 2341-1, the European Works Council, whether or not it has been set up by agreement, may be abolished by agreement.

In the absence of an agreement, the administrative authority may authorise the abolition of the committee in the event of a significant and lasting reduction in staff numbers, bringing the workforce below these thresholds.

Article L2345-1

Lorsque, du fait d’une baisse des effectifs, l’entreprise ou le groupe d’entreprises de dimension communautaire ne remplit plus les conditions de seuils mentionnées à l’article L. 2341-1, le comité d’entreprise européen, qu’il ait été institué ou non par accord, peut être supprimé par accord.

A défaut d’accord, l’autorité administrative peut autoriser la suppression du comité en cas de réduction importante et durable du personnel ramenant l’effectif au-dessous de ces seuils.
