The dismissal of an employee appointed under articles L. 2232-23-1 and L. 2232-26 may only take place with the authorisation of the Labour Inspector.
Such authorisation is also required as soon as the employer becomes aware that the employee’s appointment is imminent.
The same applies to the dismissal of a former employee with a mandate during the twelve months following the date on which his mandate ended. In this case, if no agreement has been reached at the end of the negotiations for which the employee was appointed, the period of protection runs from the date of the end of these negotiations, as evidenced by a statement of disagreement.
