Employees forced to keep their children due to the closure of schools and could not telecommute will benefit from partial unemployment.

They will thus be compensated from the first day of their work stoppage, until the end of the period of isolation. 

Employees in the private sector forced to keep their children due to the closure of their nursery, school or college and who will be unable to telework will be placed in partial activity, the government announced Wednesday evening in a statement. They will thus be able "to benefit from a replacement income from the first day of their stoppage of work, and at the latest until the end of the period of isolation", specifies the Ministry of Solidarity and Health. "This compensation may benefit one parent per household, in the event of telework incapacity of both parents and on presentation of proof".
