In order to return to working conditions favorable to your state of health following a work stoppage, you can gradually return to the office thanks to therapeutic part-time work. During this temporary arrangement, your hours are adjusted according to your needs and at the same time your salary adapts.
What salary do we receive during therapeutic part-time?
In the context of therapeutic part-time, it is your doctor who defines your working time. You can resume at 50%, 60% or even 80% depending on your needs. The healthcare professional must then specify this in a medical certificate to be sent to your employer. You then establish the conditions of your recovery with your company. This will issue you with a certificate to send to the Primary Health Insurance Fund (CPAM) with your doctor’s prescription.
You will be paid by your employer in proportion to the hours worked, then the CPAM medical advisor will establish the amount of daily allowances (IJ) which will supplement your salary. Please note, however, that the combination of your salary and IJ cannot exceed the amount of your full-time income.
What will be your loss of salary during your part-time work?
The CPAM may pay you daily allowances if returning to work is likely to promote the improvement of your state of health and if you are undergoing rehabilitation or vocational rehabilitation to find employment compatible with your health. If these conditions are met, then the IJ are calculated by taking into account your basic daily salary (according to the gross amount of your last three pay slips before stopping work). You will then receive 50% of this amount per day worked as part of your therapeutic part-time. Unless your employer supplements the IJ, then you will have a daily wage loss of half of your non-working time.
