peer agreement (net): +1contesting the full and final settlement of salaires and other sums due Explanation: It does appear as though the amount is being challenged. However, the term "dénonciation" can have several meanings. I'm not in the habit of using WIkipedia for legal terminology, but this does give you a quick run-down of the possible meanings : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dénonciation I'm not sure what the writer is meaning by "dénonciation" here, but from what you say, it looks as though he is "contesting" the amount. I would not say "reject" the amount, as that could be read to mean that he des not agree and is therefore refusing to accept the amount (i.e. will not cash the check, etc). I think "contest" is the clearest solution here. It is the term used in French too. The idea is that the person is contesting the amount of the final pay check: http://www.juritravail.com/Lettre/Modele-Lettre/Lettre-conte... Note that this is not "severance pay" which is a lump sum paid when being made redundant (indemnité de licenciement). Translating "solde pour tout compte" by "severance pay" would be a mistranslation. Bear in mind that someone who is being made redundant will (as a rule) be entitle to both severance pay (indemnité de licenciement) and his final pay check (solde pour tout compte). A "solde pour tout compte" is the final salary and any other monies due when a contract ends, (for whatever reason), payment in lieu of holiday leave that has not been taken, bonuses under collective agreements, etc. The procedure by which the amount can be contested varies according to whether or not the (former) employee signed the receipt. See below. https://www.service-public.fr/particuliers/vosdroits/F86 "Si le salarié a signé le reçu pour solde de tout compte. Si le salarié a signé le reçu pour solde de tout compte, il dispose de 6 mois suivant la date de signature pour le contester. La contestation doit être adressée à l'employeur par lettre recommandée avec accusé de réception (LRAR). Le courrier précise alors les motifs de la contestation et les sommes concernées (arriéré de salaire ou indemnités de congés payés, par exemple). L'employeur n'est pas obligé de mentionner le délai de contestation de 6 mois sur le solde de tout compte. Attention : l'employeur peut réclamer les sommes versées en trop pendant 3 ans." "Si le salarié n'a pas signé le reçu pour solde de tout compte. Si le salarié n'a pas signé le reçu pour solde de tout compte remis par l'employeur, il peut le contester dans les 3 ans suivant la date de sa remise. La contestation doit être adressée à l'employeur par lettre recommandée avec accusé de réception (LRAR). Le courrier précise alors les motifs de la contestation et les sommes concernées (arriéré de salaire ou indemnités de congés payés, par exemple). Attention : l'employeur peut réclamer les sommes versées en trop pendant 3 ans." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 hrs (2017-06-29 17:47:24 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- solde pour tout compte : "full and final settlement of all sums due" Forget my waffly header. Also ignore the fact that I left a French word in there! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 hrs (2017-06-29 17:48:32 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- So basically in France, you can still cash you final pay check and contest the amount you have received. It is not about rejecting in the sense of not cashing the cheque. |
