Article L3121-37 of the French Labour Code

In companies where there is no trade union representative, the employer may replace all or part of the payment for overtime, as well as any additional pay, with an equivalent compensatory rest period, provided that the social and economic committee, if there is one, does not object.

The employer may also adapt the conditions and procedures for allocating and taking the substitute compensatory rest to the company, after consulting the social and economic committee.

Article L3121-37

Dans les entreprises dépourvues de délégué syndical, le remplacement de tout ou partie du paiement des heures supplémentaires, ainsi que des majorations, par un repos compensateur équivalent peut être mis en place par l’employeur à condition que le comité social et économique, s’il existe, ne s’y oppose pas.

L’employeur peut également adapter à l’entreprise les conditions et les modalités d’attribution et de prise du repos compensateur de remplacement après avis du comité social et économique.
