In industries or industrial undertakings, a company or establishment agreement or, failing that, an extended branch agreement or convention may provide for the possibility of organising work on a continuous basis for economic reasons and allocating the weekly rest period by rotation.
In the absence of an agreement or an extended collective labour agreement or a company agreement, a derogation may be granted by the labour inspector after consultation with the union representatives and the opinion of the social and economic committee, if there is one, under conditions determined by decree of the Conseil d’Etat.
