In order to guarantee compliance with the principle of equal treatment with regard to disabled workers, the employer shall take, depending on the needs in a specific situation, the appropriate measures to enable the workers mentioned in 1° to 4° and 9° to 11° of Article L. 5212-13 to access a job or to keep a job corresponding to their qualification, to carry it out or to progress in it,…
In any company employing at least two hundred and fifty employees, a referent is appointed to guide, inform and support people with disabilities. For the purposes of this article, the number of employees and the fact that the threshold of two hundred and fifty employees has been crossed are determined in accordance with the procedures set out inarticle L. 130-1 of the Social Security Code. At the request of the…
The salary of the beneficiaries referred to in article L. 5212-13 may not be lower than that resulting from the application of legal provisions or the stipulations of the collective labour agreement.
Disabled workers recruited in application of the provisions of Chapter II may not, in the event of a relapse of the disabling condition, benefit from the special advantages granted in the event of illness by a special statute or a collective labour agreement. However, these statutes or collective agreements may provide for derogations from the provisions mentioned in the first paragraph. In the event of an accident or illness other…
In the event of redundancy, the period of notice determined in application of article L. 1234-1 is doubled for the beneficiaries of Chapter II, without this measure having the effect of increasing the period of notice beyond three months. However, these provisions do not apply where collective bargaining agreements or, failing that, customary practice provide for a notice period of at least three months.
The State may grant financial assistance from the Fonds de Développement pour l’Insertion Professionnelle des Handicapés (Development Fund for the Professional Integration of the Disabled) to any employer subject to the obligation to employ disabled workers, in order to facilitate the placement or return to work of disabled people in an ordinary production environment. This aid may also be intended to compensate for additional supervision costs.
For the application of the provisions of article L. 5213-7 relating to the salary of a disabled worker, aid financed by the development fund for the professional integration of the disabled may be allocated by decision of the association mentioned in article L. 5214-1. This aid, requested by the employer, may be allocated according to the characteristics of the beneficiaries.
Disabled workers who choose to be self-employed may be eligible for assistance from the Fonds de Développement pour l’Insertion Professionnelle des Handicapés if their productivity is significantly reduced as a result of their disability.
The State approves structures that meet the criteria set out in article L. 5213-13-1 as adapted companies.

When they are set up by commercial companies, they take the form of separate legal entities.
Adapted companies contribute to regional development and promote an inclusive economic environment favourable to women and men with disabilities. They enter into employment contracts with workers recognised as disabled by the Commission for the Rights and Autonomy of Disabled People mentioned in article L. 241-5 of the Code of Social Action and Families who are unemployed or at risk of losing their job due to their disability.
