The provisions of articles R. 6153-2, with the exception of the first paragraph of I, to R. 6153-2-5 relating to working hours are applicable to junior doctors.
In application of article L. 4111-1-1, junior doctors may, at their request, be authorised to take part in medical on-call duty as part of their training period service obligations and taking into account teaching requirements.
This authorisation is issued by the director of the host structure, in agreement with the practitioner to whom they report, for the remaining duration of the training period, and after obtaining the opinion of the head of department. It is forwarded to the Association Council with which the junior doctor is registered. The Council of the Order will include the junior doctor’s ability to perform medical on-call duty on the special register mentioned in article R. 6153-1-1.
The list of specialities in which this authorisation may be granted is set by order of the Minister for Health.
