Arrêt de travail

"Arrêt de travail" is a French term meaning "work stoppage" or "sick leave." It refers to a period when an employee is unable to work due to illness, injury, or health treatment, authorized by a medical professional. During this time, the employee typically receives a portion of their salary or social security benefits. The purpose is to ensure recovery without the pressure of work obligations. Employers and health authorities use this documentation to manage workforce planning and social security benefits. It's a recognized legal process designed to support employees' health and well-being during periods of incapacity.
