French civil servant part-time request
A French civil servant’s part-time request should identify the public-service branch, reason, working proportion and proposed arrangement. Part-time work as an entitlement differs from work requiring authorisation; the proportion does not automatically determine a free day. This organiser prepares information for HR without calculating salary, pension consequences or an automatic individual entitlement.
