Menstrual leave
The University of Montpellier has set up a menstrual leave scheme to take into account the impact of menstrual periods during studies.
This system enables the people concerned to benefit from temporary absences from work, under certain conditions, in the event of problems linked toes to menstruation.
How does it work?
- Any menstruating student enrolled in a national diploma at the UM can apply for an exemption from attendance due to menstrual disorders.
- The number of days of exemption from classroom teaching (CM, TD, TP, etc.), excluding scheduled assessment, is set at 10 days for the current academic year, up to a maximum of two days per month (excluding any period spent in the workplace and examination periods).
- Any extension of absence may be granted on the advice of the preventive medicine department (Service Commun de Médecine Préventive et de Promotion de la Santé).
- This service welcomes you and helps you deal with your problems.
How to proceed
- Complete theattestation sur l 'honneur and send it to your UEI school within 48 hours of the course in question.
- After 10 days, consult SCMPPS for medical advice
