Giving days of rest to an employee who is the parent of a critically ill or caregiver - Employee parent of critically ill child

The donation of days of rest is a device allowing any employee to give up anonymously, and without consideration, all or part of his days of rest not taken.

Any employee can benefit from this donation of rest days if he meets the following 2 conditions:

• The employee assumes the charge a child under 20 years of age
• The child is suffering from a disease, disability or a serious accident, which make sustained presence and compelling care essential

The donation can cover all days of rest not taken, except the first 4 weeks of paid leave.

It may therefore concern the following days:

• Days corresponding to 5^e paid holiday week

• Compensatory rest days granted under a working time reduction scheme (RTT)
• Other recovery days not taken
• Given days of rest may come from a time savings account (TSA)

An employee who receives a grant of rest days shall retain his or her remuneration during his or her absence.

All periods of absence shall be treated as a period of actual work. These periods of absence shall be taken into account in determining the employee's entitlement to seniority.

The employee retains the benefit of all the advantages he had acquired before the beginning of his absence.
