Does a European national employed in France have the same rights as a French employee?

Verified 21 June 2022 - Directorate for Legal and Administrative Information (Prime Minister)

Yeah. Yeah. If employed in France, the national of a country of the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA) has the same obligations and rights as a French employee (working time, leave, remuneration, etc.).

In addition, he does not have to obtain a work authorization to be hired in France.
