Following a recent ruling by the French Supreme Court (Cour de cassation), in line with European law, employees who fall ill whilst on holiday can now recover the days they have lost.
If you are expanding your business into France or already managing a local team, offering a health plan (“mutuelle”) is only part of your compliance and employee benefits responsibilities.
Hiring in France means more than offering a salary. It means integrating into one of the world’s most structured social protection systems, including healthcare, which is both robust and highly regulated.
