L'information n'est peut-être plus exacte
In order to adapt to the health measures, the exceptional partial activity scheme for all home workers and maternity assistants working on behalf of an individual employer is reactivated by April 2021. It is not the same as the scheme put in place between March and August 2020. What cases were selected? The detail with Service-Public.fr.
Who is involved?
The device is open:
- home-based employees who engage in unauthorized activities during the lockdown (home-based non-academic tuition);
- employees of an individual employer engaged in a self-employed activity which has ceased as a result of the health measures (managers of shops which cannot accommodate a particular public);
- to employees may develop severe forms of COVID-19.
Example :
A restaurateur may suspend the activity of his employee hired for the care of his children and resort to short-time work.
FYI
As a result of the closure of schools and care establishments, employees concerned with the care of their children at home will be able to benefit from a derogating work stoppage. The Home Support Declaration can be found on ameli.fr.
Terms and conditions
An individual employer who wishes to suspend the activity of his employee and place him on short-time work must fill in the exceptional compensation form, accessible from the sites of the Cesu and Pajemploi. The April form will be available in early May.
The partial activity scheme also applies under the same conditions, for employees hired through a proxy association.
In the case of checks, documentary evidence is required to verify that the conditions are met:
- if the activity of the employee at home is subject to restrictions: a statement on his honor, drawn up by that employee, certifying the nature of the activity pursued and the hours not worked giving rise to compensation;
- if the employer pursues an activity which is the subject of an administrative ban: a documentary evidence proving the nature of the activity pursued and a sworn declaration that the company is the subject of a public reception ban;
- if the employee is considered to be , an isolation certificate issued by a doctor.
The amounts
The hourly allowance paid shall be at least equal to 80% the net amount of scheduled and uncompleted hours determined on the basis of the remuneration provided for in the contract of employment. This allowance may not be less than the minimum hourly rate provided for in the collective agreement.
The Urssaf reimburses the employer 65% net remuneration for hours not worked. However, 15% the remaining costs shall be borne by the employer.
FYI
The employer may supplement the salary of his employee to enable him to benefit from the maintenance of his salary.
