Article L5121-4 of the French Labour Code

In order to encourage employees to adapt to changes in employment within the company, particularly those with social characteristics that expose them more particularly to the consequences of economic change, company agreements giving entitlement to State aid, concluded within the framework of a branch agreement or a national, regional or local professional agreement on employment, may provide for the implementation of long-term training initiatives.

These agreements may extend the benefit of these actions to employees whose external redeployment is envisaged by the company, provided that this redeployment is expressly accepted by the employee and takes place under a permanent contract or under the conditions laid down for the employment of employees in the public sector or local authorities.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article L5121-4

Afin de favoriser l’adaptation des salariés aux évolutions de l’emploi dans l’entreprise, notamment de ceux qui présentent des caractéristiques sociales les exposant plus particulièrement aux conséquences des mutations économiques, des accords d’entreprise ouvrant droit à une aide de l’Etat, conclus dans le cadre d’une convention de branche ou d’un accord professionnel sur l’emploi national, régional ou local, peuvent prévoir la réalisation d’actions de formation de longue durée.

Ces accords peuvent étendre le bénéfice de ces actions aux salariés dont l’entreprise envisage le reclassement externe, à condition que ce reclassement soit expressément accepté par le salarié et intervienne par contrat à durée indéterminée ou dans les conditions prévues pour l’emploi des salariés du secteur public ou des collectivités territoriales.
