THE FASIOPEN HEALTH PLANS
Each company is free to define, through a company agreement or regulation, what share of costs it intends to sustain and, on the other hand, any share of costs to be borne by its employees.
Thus once the company has identified the most suitable health plan for its community of employees – corresponding to a specific contribution – it can decide whether to sustain the entire cost or only part of it, possibly withholding the remainder to be borne by employees directly from their pay packets.
That said, the company must pay its own contributions to the Fund in arrears every quarter, together with those payable by the employees to be covered.
The quarterly payment in arrears therefore includes the contribution payable by the company, the contribution payable by the employees covered (when expressly envisaged), as well as any contribution payable by employees for their family unit, if covered.
The payment must be made by the 16th day of the month following the relevant quarter.
