How do I calculate the length of service for the termination benefit?

Verified 15 April 2020 - Directorate for Legal and Administrative Information (Prime Minister)

The employee in CDI: titleContent who is dismissed shall be entitled to a statutory redundancy if he has at least 8 months of seniority. But, beware, he is not entitled if he has committed a serious or heavy fault.

The entitlement to the allowance is determined from the day the employer sends the recommended termination letter.

The duration of notice (whether executed or not) shall be taken into account in calculating seniority.

The length of service shall be determined taking into account work performed with the same employer on an uninterrupted basis (except treaty provisions more favorable to the employee).
