    Labor law alert - Teleworking and equal treatment: the Court of Cassation puts an end to the debate on meal vouchers

    [Translate to English:] employees

    Employees who work remotely have the same rights as those who work on site with regard to meal vouchers.

    In a ruling dated October 8, 2025 (Cass. soc., no. 24-12.373), the Court of Cassation established a principle: employees who work remotely have the same rights as those who work on site with regard to meal vouchers. Thus, remote work alone cannot constitute a reason for removing this right.

    The only condition for granting a meal voucher to a teleworking employee is that the meal must be included in the employee's daily schedule. This decision puts an end to several years of legal uncertainty and confirms the position of the URSSAF.

    This clarification comes at a time of changing teleworking policies. For several months now, large companies—Société Générale, JCDecaux, Iliad—have chosen to reduce the number of teleworking days, citing the need to strengthen cohesion, corporate culture, and informal interactions.
