below legal minimum Below the statutory minimum wage — the legal minimum applies instead.
Still the grid in force on 2026-11-11: the ministry's code.travail.gouv.fr page for IDCC 1486 (updated 1 June 2026) cites only this accord; no later salary avenant/extension found on Légifrance (2026 extensions for IDCC 1486 concern parentality, prévoyance, equality, scope). Effective 1 Jan 2025 (first day of month after extension, at the earliest 1 Jan 2025). Monthly gross minima (absolute amounts, no point value). Position '2.1' appears twice in the cadres grid (coeff. 105 and 115) exactly as published. Working-time modalities (accord du 22 juin 1999, not re-verified here): modalité 1 standard 35h; modalité 2 'réalisation de missions' and modalité 3 'forfait jours' require pay above the minimum (commonly cited 115% / 120% of the conventional minimum) — check the accord before use. SMIC check (1,867.02 EUR/month since 1 June 2026): ETAM 1.1 (1,815) and 1.2 (1,845) are BELOW the SMIC -> SMIC applies. ETAM 2.1 (1,875) is just above. Before June (SMIC 1,823.03) only ETAM 1.1 was below. The accord says minima are reviewed by the CPPNI once a year, at the latest by 30 June; the employers committed to propose +20 EUR/month in the 2025 round, but no resulting signed/extended salary text was found. SMIC (legal minimum) in force on 2026-11-11: 12.31 EUR/h gross, 1,867.02 EUR/month for 35h (151.67h), since 1 June 2026 (arrete of 22 May 2026, JO 24 May 2026; previously 12.02 EUR/h / 1,823.03 EUR from 1 Jan 2026). The SMIC overrides any conventional minimum below it. On 9 Nov 2026 the government announced an early SMIC increase for 1 Dec 2026 (reported ~+1.6%); no arrete was published as of 2026-11-11, so the exact amount is not recorded here. A statutory revalorisation follows on 1 Jan 2027.
