Article L4624-4 of the French Labour Code

After carrying out or having a member of the multi-disciplinary team carry out a study of the workstation, and after discussing the matter with the employee and the employer, the occupational physician will declare the employee unfit for his or her workstation if he or she finds that it is not possible to adapt or change the workstation and that the employee’s state of health justifies a change of workstation. The opinion of unfitness issued by the occupational physician is supported by written conclusions, together with indications as to the worker’s redeployment.

L’avis d’inaptitude rendu par le médecin du travail est éclairé par des conclusions écrites, assorties d’indications relatives au reclassement du travailleur.
