#TRST2606895ADecree of 18 March 2026 extending an amendment to the National Collective Agreement for Social and Family Link Professionals (No. 1261)
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
This French decree makes mandatory the provisions of Amendment No. 02-25 on 'Providence' (prévision social / welfare benefits) dated 10 October 2025 to the 1983 National Collective Agreement for social and family link professionals. The amendment is extended to all employers and employees covered by the agreement. Certain discriminatory wording in Article 3.1 of Chapter XIII regarding marital or partnership status ('non remarié', 'non marié non pacsé', 'non repacsé ou marié') is explicitly excluded from the extension because it violates the principle of equality. The extension is granted subject to the hierarchy of norms under Article L. 2253-1 of the Labour Code, meaning branch-level agreements prevail over company agreements unless the latter provide at least equivalent guarantees.

What this law requires
All employers and employees covered by the National Collective Agreement for social and family link professionals (dated 4 June 1983) must apply the provisions of Amendment No. 02-25 on 'Providence' (welfare benefits) dated 10 October 2025.
Remove and exclude from application the discriminatory wording in Article 3.1 of Chapter XIII: 'non remarié' (not remarried), 'non marié non pacsé' (not married and not in civil partnership), and 'non repacsé ou marié' (not in renewed civil partnership or married) as these violate the principle of equality.
Respect the hierarchy of norms under Article L. 2253-1 of the Labour Code: branch-level agreements take precedence over company-level agreements unless the company agreement provides at least equivalent guarantees regarding welfare benefits.
Apply the extended amendment provisions effective from the publication date of this decree for the remaining duration and under the conditions specified in the amendment itself.
