Convention de stage ISEG version anglaise 2

ARTICLE 6 : WELFARE COVER :
The INTERN benefits from cover for accidents at the work place and job-related illness. This cover is
provided for through the INSTITUTION if the financial remittance is equal to or lower than 12.5 % of
the French Social Security Hourly Maximum or if the duration of the internship is less than 3 months.
In any other case, cover for accidents at the work place and job-related illness must be provided for by
the FIRM.
If the financial remittance is higher than the above-stipulated minimum level, the INTERN must be
affiliated (to the Social Security) by the FIRM. The latter is responsible for communicating any
accidents at the work place and / or job-related illness in writing to the Health Insurance Office (Caisse
Primaire d’Assurance Maladie) at the INTERN’s place of residence.
Where there is no financial remittance or if it amounts to a sum lower than the above-stipulated
minimum level, the INTERN will be affiliated (to the Social Security) by the INSTITUTION. The latter is
responsible for communicating any accidents at the work place and / or job-related illness to the
Health Insurance Office (Caisse Primaire d’Assurance Maladie) at the INTERN’s place of residence.
For other hazards than accidents at the work place and job-related illness, the INTERN remains
affiliated to the Social Security plan he benefits from as a student.
ARTICLE 7 : DISCIPLINE ; CONFIDENTIALITY :
The INTERN commits him/herself to respecting the firm’s in-house rules on hygiene, safety and
general discipline (access to the company, use of its equipment and means of communication,
confidentiality).
Where such a document exists, the FIRM commits itself to making a copy of its in-house rules
available to the intern at the beginning of the internship.
The INTERN expressly commits him/herself not to use any information collected or obtained in the firm
for publication or for communication to a third party without prior agreement from the FIRM. This
commitment is valid throughout the duration of the internship but also after its expiry. The INTERN
commits him/herself not to keep, take out or make a copy of any document, of whatever kind,
belonging to the FIRM without the consent of the latter.
Within the context of the confidentiality of the information contained in any subsequent internship
report, the FIRM may request the circulation of the report be restricted, even the withdrawal of some
highly confidential elements. The INSTITUTION ensures that persons liable to having any access be
bound by professional secrecy neither to use nor disclose the information contained within the report.
ARTICLE 8 : ABSENCE :
Any absence must be notified to the INSTITUTION by the FIRM.
The contacts reach mutual agreement on what constitutes an authorized absence.
ARTICLE 9 : SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION OF THE INTERNSHIP :
Should one of the three signatory parties wish to terminate the internship for good, that party must
inform the other two parties in writing and substantiate the reason. Termination may occur only after
consultation between all parties has been sought.
Such termination should be confirmed in writing further to consultation between all parties having been
sought.
ARTICLE 10 : STATUS OF THE INTERN :
Throughout the duration of his/her internship, the INTERN remains a pupil of the school. He does not
have the status of employee and may not claim to be entitled to the benefits enjoyed by the FIRM’s

insurance includes use by an INTERN.
Similarly, the INTERN must not use his/her own or a loaned vehicle within the framework of the
internship without first making sure it is insured for such purposes.
ARTICLE 12 : RECRUITMENT :
Should a contract for employment, starting at a date prior to the end of the internship, be signed with
