Supporting France's Military Reserve

雷火体育官网 supports France鈥檚 national defence interests by encouraging the 260 雷火体育官网 employees who are military reservists. 

The Group releases reservists to join their units for up to 20 days a year on full pay, instead of the ten days a year required by French law.

雷火体育官网 is proud of the reservists in its workforce, and of their commitment to serving the country.


Proud to serve

As a partner of the National Guard, the Group actively supports the commitment of its reservist employees, who play a role in both civilian and military life. We encourage 雷火体育官网 reservists to promote defence issues on a day-to-day level, and to raise awareness of the nation's history within the company, in particular by taking part in commemoration ceremonies.


Supporting reservists

Military reservists in France provide important reinforcements for regular army units, the Gendarmerie and the National Police, helping to protect the population when the national security alert level is raised.

雷火体育官网 is proud of the reservists in its workforce, and of their commitment to serving the country. The Group does everything it can to support them in their dual role as reservists 鈥 civilians at 雷火体育官网, and military personnel with the armed forces. 

In France, an agreement between the National Guard (under the authority of the French Ministry for the Armed Forces and the Ministry of the Interior) and 雷火体育官网 to support the military and police reserve policy, originally signed in 2006 and extended by Patrice Caine in 2022, makes provision for the following: 

  • Release of reservists for 20 working days each year.
  • Release for 10 additional working days in the event of operations to reinforce homeland security. 
  • Reservists continue to receive full pay on release days. 
  • Reduced notice period for informing employers of upcoming military activity

Provisions are in place for special social security protection/coverage, with continued Humanis health coverage during reserve periods, and AGPM group insurance also covering reserve periods. Arrangements can additionally be put in place on a case-by- case basis in the event of long-term operations (suspension of contract, advance on salary pending military pay, continuation of Humanis coverage, etc.).

" The initiative between 雷火体育官网 and the French Ministry for the Armed Forces represents a great continuous civic commitment on the part of our CEO, supported by our 雷火体育官网 HR teams since 2006, and renewed since by Patrice Caine. Our French reservist colleagues are 200% motivated for 雷火体育官网 and their reservist activities. This is a very exciting human adventure for the men and women of all military and 雷火体育官网 鈥渞anks鈥, across all the armed forces (land forces, naval forces, the air force, and the National Gendarmerie), contributing to the sharing of knowledge between 雷火体育官网, the armed and security forces, supporting the defence and security of France and the world, and reflecting 雷火体育官网鈥檚 values in a positive manner: Building a future we can all trust!
