Article L6315-2 of the French Labour Code

At the start of their term of office as a municipal councillor, departmental councillor or regional councillor, employees are entitled, at their request, to an individual interview with their employer on the practical arrangements for carrying out their term of office with regard to their job. This interview does not replace the professional interview mentioned in article L. 6315-1.

The employer and the employee concerned may agree on the measures to be implemented to facilitate reconciliation between the employee’s professional life and his elective duties and, where applicable, on the conditions of remuneration for time spent absent from work to perform these duties.

Article L6315-2

Au début de son mandat de conseiller municipal, de conseiller départemental ou de conseiller régional, le salarié bénéficie, à sa demande, d’un entretien individuel avec son employeur portant sur les modalités pratiques d’exercice de son mandat au regard de son emploi. Cet entretien ne se substitue pas à l’entretien professionnel mentionné à l’article L. 6315-1.


L’employeur et le salarié concerné peuvent s’accorder sur les mesures à mettre en œuvre pour faciliter la conciliation entre la vie professionnelle et les fonctions électives du salarié et, le cas échéant, sur les conditions de rémunération des temps d’absence consacrés à l’exercice de ces fonctions.
