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 the amendment dated 13 November 2025 to the 19 January 2004 branch agreement on collective welfare benefits (prévoyance collective) within the national collective bargaining agreement for import-export and international trade signed on 18 December 1952. The decree extends the amendment to all employers and employees covered by the parent agreement. However, the specific terms "non séparé de corps" (not judicially separated) appearing in Article 2.3.7 of the 2004 agreement, as modified by the 2025 amendment, are explicitly excluded from the extension because they violate the principle of equality. The extension takes legal effect on the date this decree is published in the Official Journal and applies for the remaining duration of the amendment.
