The representative trade union organisations at national level or in the company may take any legal action resulting from the application of articles L. 3221-2 to L. 3221-7, relating to equal pay for men and women.
They may take such action on behalf of a job applicant, a trainee or an employee.
The trade union organisation does not have to prove that it has a mandate from the person concerned. All that is required is that the person concerned has been notified in writing of the action and has not objected within a period of fifteen days from the date on which the trade union organisation notified him of its intention to take action.
The person concerned may always intervene in the proceedings brought by the union.
