Where an employee who has suffered an accident or contracted an occupational disease has a fixed-term employment contract, the employer may only terminate the contract during the periods in which the contract is suspended if he can prove that the employee is guilty of serious misconduct or force majeure.
Periods during which the employment contract is suspended as a result of an accident at work or occupational illness do not prevent the fixed-term employment contract from expiring. However, where the contract includes a renewal clause, the employer may only refuse to renew the contract during the periods of suspension if he can prove a real and serious reason unrelated to the accident or illness. Failing this, the employer shall…

An employee whose employment contract is suspended for a personal reason beyond his control and for a relatively insignificant period is entitled to continue to receive his salary. However, during the suspension of the contract, the indemnities paid by a compulsory social insurance scheme are deducted from the amount of remuneration due by the employer.
A sales clerk who, as a result of an accident for which he is not at fault, is unable to perform his employment contract is entitled to his salary for a maximum period of six weeks. During this period, compensation paid by an insurance company or a mutual insurance company is not deducted from the amount of remuneration due by the employer. Any stipulation to the contrary is null and…
