Non-Competition Clause in the French Labor Law

Abstract

This article primarily explains the legal framework governing some frequently used arguments for suspending employment contracts. Although the Arbitration Council has built a consistent jurisprudence on suspension cases triggered by serious economic difficulty or illness, doubts still remain with regards to certain obligations and the issue of inaptitude. This article, therefore, provides some comparative insights and speculates on future directions.

Keywords: suspension; economic difficulty; illness.
