The French Government has now announced the progression to Stage 3, and the closure of all areas ‘not life essential’ for its citizens.
Restaurants, bars, discotheques and cinemas are to remain closed, according to the decree published this Sunday, March 15 2020. The measures also apply to halls for concerts, conferences, meetings, shows, shopping centres (other than essential shops), dance halls and games rooms, libraries and documentation centres, exhibition halls, ski resorts, indoor sports facilities and museums. Restaurants and bars in hotels, with the exception of room service, are also included in this list.
UPDATE 15/05/2020 for your employeesPartial unemployment (chômage partiel) continues to be possible under the same conditions until the end of May.
From 1st of June: Partial unemployment (chômage partiel) will still be possible but progressively decreasing, except for those companies that are still prohibited from opening by decree – mainly tourism and events companies who will benefit from full Partial unemployment measures until the end of September. Progressive extensions are still being discussed to the end of December, but conditions remains uncertain.
For those that were on technical sick leave for care of a minor (child under 16 years) – since 1st of May the sick leave has been automatically transferred to the partial unemployment mechanism.
From the 2nd of June, parents who wish to stay at home to care for their children under 16 years will need to provide an attestation that the school remains shut – alternatively opt for the partial unemployment (chômage partiel) initiated by the employer for lack of or reduced activity.
These take into account the latest measures announced in the Finance Act adopted on Sunday 22 March.

As an employer, you are obliged to ensure the safety and health of your employees. In this context, you must limit or even prohibit your employees’ business trips.
In addition, if one of your employees has been in contact with an infected person, it is recommended that you isolate him or her by placing him or her at home or, if this is not possible, that you arrange his or her workplace so as to reduce his or her contact with company personnel. Before making any major changes to the organisation of work, you should consult your social and economic committee.
And, of course, it is in your best interest to remind your employees of the health instructions aimed at combating the spread of the virus: wash your hands very regularly, cough or sneeze into your elbow, use single-use tissues, etc.
