FOCUS on... the feeding of Long Term TSA

12/09/2024


(In this article, ST TSA stands for Short Term Time Saving Account and LT TSA for Long Term Time Saving Account)
 
"I can put 30 days maximum on the LT TSA each year"
 
FALSE : "30 days maximum" represents the number of days that it is possible to transfer each year from the ST TSA to the LT TSA (transfer possible throughout the year).
Note: in 2024, it is even 40 days that it is possible to transfer from ST to LT.

In addition to these 30 days, the additional paid leaves (except classes 16) and/or JRTT can be placed directly on the LT TSA (placement possible from July 1 to December 31).

=> in the end, if you seek to maximize the number of days on the LT TSA, you can place: 30 + 5 + 9* = 44 days.

(*for a year with 15 JRTT and keeping 6 for closure periods (ex ACT) => 15 - 6 = 9 JRTT).

Please note: for cadres, the days resulting from the December bonus of year N and placed on the ST TSA can then be transferred from the ST TSA to the LT TSA only as from the beginning of January N+1. This means that these days will be counted towards the quota for year N+1.

"If I make all these placements on the TSA, I only have 25 days of paid leave left to use as holidays"
 
TRUE and FALSE: This is TRUE because all other available days are placed on the LT TSA.

But it is also FALSE because you can also make a deduction from your salary of €2000 max in June and €2000 max in November to “buy” additional leave. The corresponding days are then placed on the ST TSA.
 
"How many days does the €2000 correspond to"?

This obviously depends on your salary but also on your status or even your seniority.
We will not go into detail here, we will soon publish an article "FOCUS ON..." dedicated to this subject.

However, keep in mind: 1 month's gross salary (including seniority for non cadres) represents approximately 22 days. For example, for a cadre with a gross monthly salary of €4,400, 1 day = €4,400 / 22 = €200, so the maximum €2,000 that can be deducted from the salary represents 10 days.
