Article R621-14 of the French Commercial code

Within ten days of the opening judgment, the legal representative of the debtor legal entity or the individual debtor, assisted by the administrator if one has been appointed, convenes the social and economic committee or, failing this, the employees. The employees then elect their representative by secret ballot in a single-round uninominal ballot.

The minutes of the appointment of the employees’ representative, or the minutes of the failure to act drawn up under the conditions of the second paragraph of article L. 621-4, is immediately filed with the court registry.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article R621-14

Dans les dix jours du prononcé du jugement d’ouverture, le représentant légal de la personne morale débitrice ou le débiteur personne physique, assisté de l’administrateur s’il en a été désigné, réunit le comité social et économique ou, à défaut, les salariés. Les salariés élisent alors leur représentant par vote secret au scrutin uninominal à un tour.

Le procès-verbal de désignation du représentant des salariés, ou le procès-verbal de carence établi dans les conditions du deuxième alinéa de l’article L. 621-4, est immédiatement déposé au greffe du tribunal.
