Cannes housing office trims 13th-month bonus from 16th sick day

Staff of the office public de l'habitat OPH Cannes Pays de Lérins (Cannes et Rive Droite du Var) face a tightened rule on their 13th-month bonusLegifrance: avenant n° 1 to the bonus accord, signed at Cannes-la-Bocca on 9 December 2025 with the CGT and CFE-CGC unions, rewrites article IV(1) on absences so that sick leave now reduces the bonus from the 16th calendar day of absence in the reference periodLegifrance.

Absences for ordinary sickness, long sickness (longue maladie, maladie de longue durée), pathological leave and unpaid leave count toward the thresholdLegifrance; work accidents and occupational diseases are excluded entirelyLegifrance. Beyond 15 calendar days of counted absence over the reference year, the 13th-month bonus (PRIME13) is cut by 1/360th per day of absence. The avenant gives the arithmetic: a 20-calendar-day sickness absence leaves 5 days above the threshold, so the prorated bonus equals PRIME13/360 × (360 − 5).

All other articles of the bonus accord stand unchangedLegifrance; the only operative change is the new absence-counting rule described above.

For payroll, the consequences are concrete: from this avenant, any counted absence reaching 16 calendar days over the reference year triggers a daily 1/360th reductionLegifrance, and only work-accident and occupational-disease absences are neutralLegifrance. Because the franchise is 15 calendar daysLegifrance and the reduction is 1/360th per further day, a 30-day counted absence costs 15/360ths of the bonus, while a 15-day absence costs nothing. Shorter or non-counted absences leave the bonus intact, and the reduction applies per calendar day of absence above the 15-day franchise, not per working day.

The avenant was drawn up in four copies between the employer and the two signatory unions. Its scope is the single employer OPH Cannes Pays de LérinsLegifrance; it creates no sector-wide rule.

Legal basis: avenant n° 1 à l'accord relatif à l'attribution d'une prime de 13ème mois au sein de l'OPH Cannes et Rive Droite du Var, signed 9 December 2025 (article IV, cas spécifiques cumulables impactant la prime, § 1 En cas d'absence(s)).
