Article L3141-31 of the French Labour Code

When an establishment closes for a number of days in excess of the statutory annual holiday entitlement, the employer shall pay employees, for each working day of closure in excess of the statutory annual holiday entitlement, an allowance which may not be less than the daily holiday allowance.

This daily allowance is not the same as the holiday allowance.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article L3141-31

Lorsqu’un établissement ferme pendant un nombre de jours dépassant la durée des congés légaux annuels, l’employeur verse aux salariés, pour chacun des jours ouvrables de fermeture excédant cette durée, une indemnité qui ne peut être inférieure à l’indemnité journalière de congés.

Cette indemnité journalière ne se confond pas avec l’indemnité de congés.
