French civil service leave regulations

Overview

A new decree for the French civil service, set to take effect on January 1, 2027, unifies rules regarding special leave of absence (ASA) and schedule adjustments for parenting and family events. The regulation distinguishes between rights-based leave, which is granted automatically upon documentation, and leave subject to service necessity, which requires employer approval.

Rights-based categories include marriage, adoption interviews, and bereavement. Labor unions have responded with mixed views; the CFDT noted the decree clarifies rights, while the SNEP-FSU argued it limits existing protections by placing certain leaves, such as those for medically assisted procreation (PMA), under management discretion.
