When paid, the first three days of absence justified by incapacity resulting from illness or accident are considered as actual working time.
A reduced amount of aid is paid to the company when the employer is obliged, in application of legal or contractual provisions, to maintain remuneration during periods giving rise to the payment of the daily allowance provided for in article L. 321-1 of the Social Security Code.
The amount of this reduced assistance is calculated on the basis of 30% of the gross minimum hourly growth wage. It takes into account the applicable working hours or the working hours stipulated in the contract in the case of part-time work, up to the limit of the legal working hours. Where the absence does not cover a full calendar month, the aid is reduced in proportion to the number of daily allowances paid.
