Article L5134-21-2 of the French Labour Code

Aid for professional integration may not be granted in the following cases:

1° When recruitment is to replace an employee who has been made redundant for a reason other than serious misconduct or gross negligence. If it appears that the recruitment has resulted in the dismissal of another employee, the decision to grant the aid is withdrawn by the State or by the President of the Departmental Council. The decision to withdraw the granting of aid obliges the employer to repay all sums received in respect of the aid;

2° If the employer is not up to date with the payment of its social security contributions.
