Professional transition allowance

Persons concerned:

Any person who benefits from an external professional redeployment by referral to the Joint Commission by the medical supervision of the Social Security after 1 January 2016 with at least 10 years 'aptitude at the last job ascertained by the competent occupational physician or at least ten years' service.

The periods of professional activity carried out by a person being in occupational redeployment are taken into account.

The professional transition allowance is

• subject to social and tax charges;
• granted and withdrawn by the Joint Commission;
• paid by ADEM;
• paid half from the Employment Fund and half from the pension authority in charge.

The recipient of the occupational allowance who, without a valid reason, fails to report to the ADEM services on the days and hours fixed, loses, by decision of the Joint Commission, the right to the allowance in regards to the professional waiting period for seven days and in case of recidivism for thirty days.  Failure to attend three consecutive appointments results in the final suspension of the occupational allowance and the closure of the file.
