🇬🇧 English

This French decree, published on 2 April 2026, makes mandatory the provisions of the national framework agreement of 16 April 2025 on social welfare (prévoyance) concluded within the dairy industry collective bargaining agreement of 20 May 1955 (updated 1 December 1976). The decree extends Article 3.4 of that framework agreement to all employers and employees covered by the dairy industry collective agreement. The extension is granted with the explicit reservation that it must comply with Article L. 911-8 of the Social Security Code, which limits the portability of welfare guarantees to a maximum of 12 months and does not prohibit resuming employment provided it does not end unemployment benefits. The measure takes effect from the date of publication for the remaining term of the agreement.
