ARTHUR METZ of Marlenheim and the Syndicat Autonome Arthur Metz agreed on 2 April 2026 a temporary monthly bonus — the prime d'accompagnement à la réorganisation industrielle (PARI) — for non-cadre staff in Production, Logistics and MaintenanceLegifrance at the Marlenheim and Pfaffenheim sites
Legifrance during a major production-line reorganisation. Cadres are excluded on stated objective grounds linked to continuous service and physical presence on the lines during the critical phase
Legifrance.
The bonus equals 5% of gross monthly base pay (the salaire de base line, excluding all accessories)Legifrance, for full- and part-time staff alike
Legifrance. It is an attendance bonus for the reorganisation's critical phase: any absence in the calendar month that statute does not treat as effective presence forfeits the month's payment
Legifrance. Assimilated to presence under article L.3324-6 of the code du travail are paid leave, staff-representation mandates, maternity, adoption, paternity and childcare leave, work accidents (excluding commuting accidents) and occupational diseases, quarantine periods, bereavement leave and short-time work hours
Legifrance. Any other absence — notably non-occupational sickness — removes the bonus for that month
Legifrance.
The arrangement ran for a fixed term with differentiated site calendars: Marlenheim from 1 April to 30 June 2026Legifrance and Pfaffenheim from 1 April to 31 August 2026
Legifrance, ending in all cases by 31 August 2026 at the latest, with no tacit renewal. That window has now closed: the accord no longer generates new entitlements, and its remaining interest is the payment rule for the months it covered — including which absences courts and payroll must treat as forfeiting the bonus — should disputes or corrections arise. Group-level mechanisms continue to apply independently.
Revision during the application period required a written request and negotiation within one month; disputes went first to the signatories, then to the competent court. The accord provides for filing on the Ministry of Labour's teleprocedure platform and with the Saverne conseil de prud'hommes registry, with staff informed by posting.
Legal basis: accord collectif d'entreprise ARTHUR METZ portant instauration d'une prime d'accompagnement à la réorganisation industrielle (PARI), signed 2 April 2026, fixed term 1 April–31 August 2026Legifrance.
For ARTHUR METZ Marlenheim/Pfaffenheim payroll corrections covering April–August 2026, pay the 5% PARI bonus only for months with no non-assimilated absence, and treat non-occupational sickness as forfeiting the month.
