Accenture France sets four-year group telework deal

Accenture's five French companiesLegifrance work under a four-year group telework accordLegifrance in force since 1 February 2026Legifrance. Signed in Paris on 14 January 2026 with the unions CFDT F3C, CFE-CGC FIECI, Fédération CGT Sociétés d'Études and SICSTI CFTC, it covers Holdings France, SAS, Technology Solutions, France Défense and Post-Trade ProcessingLegifrance, replacing all earlier telework textsLegifrance from its entry into forceLegifrance.

Five days on site — at the client or on Accenture premises — remains the principleLegifrance; telework is a flexible add-on with no weekly cap, up to five days a week where the assignment allows, with a principle of weekly on-site return. Management recommends three days on site a week against psychosocial risks, but that alone cannot justify a refusal. Requests go through the Benefits tool as a weekly pattern validated by the manager per project or role, renewed for each new project, role change or intermission; the approver has fifteen calendar days to accept or give a reasoned refusal from a closed list, and refusals are tracked by the monitoring commission.

The location is free and variable anywhere in metropolitan France except Corsica, provided safety of people, equipment and data is assured; the main location is declared in Benefits, defaulting to the home address, and changes go to HR with the employee bearing the transport consequences. An international remote-work pilot for listed countries continues. Telework is voluntary except in exceptional circumstances, and either side can end it on one month's written notice, with no notice at the end of a project; reinforced on-site presence needs five calendar days' notice outside continuity imperatives. Employees teleworking had to file their request by 28 February 2026 or lose the arrangement.Legifrance

Internet and electricity are reimbursed monthly for days actually teleworkedLegifrance — 17 euros for one day a week, 33 for two to three, 35 for four to five — via myTime and Expense, with meal vouchers per teleworked day or half-day and no other occupancy allowance. Full-time remote staff under the Virtual ATC model, five-day remote assignments at Accenture's request, receive 57 euros a monthLegifrance: 35 euros of connectivity plus a 22 euro occupancy allowance, also extended to staff exclusively remote on occupational-medicine prescription. A one-off 300 euro credit funds an eligible fit-outLegifrance — desk, seating, screen, mouse, keyboard, cables, footrest, lamp, headset, docking station — for staff with six months' service and a validated authorisation, on employer-name invoices from 1 September 2025, renewable every five years with no stacking of leftovers. Transport subscriptions are reimbursed as for on-site staff on the declared location; individual tickets between assignment and ad-hoc telework spots are not.

Jobs inherently requiring physical presence — product testing, on-site IT security, confidential projects, production sites, hardware setup, direct client contact — are ineligibleLegifrance, though punctual telework can be discussed; such refusals stay exceptional and reviewable. Priority facilitation goes to pregnant women, caregivers, single parents and disabled staff per occupational-medicine advice, without opening open-ended exclusive telework. In a pandemic, pollution peak or force majeure, telework can be imposed unilaterally after informing the works council, with no sanction or forced leave where the job cannot be done remotely. An accident at the telework location during work is presumed a work accident, nobody is routinely contacted between 20:00 and 8:00, and a 24/7 well-being platform plus targeted training back prevention. A joint commission meeting twice a year tracks requests, refusals, accidents, training and occupancy. Legal basis: accord groupe Accenture sur le télétravail, articles L. 1222-9, L. 411-1 and L. 2261-3 du Code du travail, ANI du 26 novembre 2020, accord de branche du 13 décembre 2022 sur l'organisation hybride du travail.
