Internal regulations

ANIMA – CECODEV

The present Internal Regulations are updated in accordance with the evolution of legislation, notably the provisions of Decree 2019-1143 of November 7, 2019 (Article 4). They comply with Articles L.6352-3 and 5 and R.6352-1 to 15 of the French Labor Code. Criminal sanctions are outlined in Articles L.6355-8 and 9 of the Labor Code.

This document is available and accessible to all trainees before they begin their training.

A copy of these regulations is permanently displayed in each training room and on the Cecodev website.

Preamble

Purpose and Scope of the Regulations

These Regulations apply to all trainees enrolled in a session provided by ANIMA CECODEV for the entire duration of their training. Each trainee is deemed to have accepted the terms of these regulations when attending training delivered by ANIMA CECODEV and agrees to comply with the measures that may be taken in case of non-compliance.

Training Location

The training takes place either on ANIMA CECODEV premises, in external venues, or remotely. The provisions of these Regulations apply within ANIMA CECODEV premises and any ancillary spaces (classrooms, visited sites, etc.) for the entire duration of the training.

However, in accordance with Article R 6352-1 of the French Labor Code, when training takes place within a company or establishment that already has internal regulations, the hygiene and safety measures applicable to trainees are those of the latter regulations.

When training is delivered remotely, these regulations apply except for Articles 8, 9, 11, and 20.
