| Contact case | → You have a complete vaccination schedule in the sense of the health pass, you are not subject to isolation. Exception – If you are a contact case of your confirmed case child under the age of 16, you can request a stop on this site for the duration of your child’s isolation: up to 7 days from the onset of symptoms or the date of the sample if your child has no symptoms (a check will be carried out by the Health Insurance). → You have an incomplete vaccination schedule: you can only make a request for a derogatory work stoppage (and benefit from an isolation certificate) after having been contacted:
|
| Symptomatic or positive self-test | You have to isolate you and get tested immediately to confirm the diagnosis. If you are in a professional activity without the possibility of teleworking, you have the possibility of requesting to benefit from a work stoppage, without waiting period, and an isolation certificate allowing you to isolate yourself until you obtain the result of your test directly online through this teleservice. |
| Child care at home | You must contact your employer in order to benefit from partial activity (partial unemployment) and to send him any supporting documents in your possession. |
| Fragile person | According to Ministry of Labor protocol, these people must apply for an isolation certificate from their attending physician, city or work. This certificate must be presented to the employer in order to be placed in partial activity. At the same time, it is recommended by the Health Insurance to get closer to the employer. |
| Traveler after moving to a risky country | The isolation certificate request process must be carried out only by your employer. You must get closer to him and send him any supporting documents in your possession. |
