2023 Recruitment Campaign for Researchers with Disabilities through the Contractual Route

The recruitment campaign for researchers with disabilities through the contractual route is closed.

For its 2023 researcher recruitment campaign, CNRS is opening opportunities for recruitment by contract under the article L352-4 of civil service code concerning certain arrangements for recruitment of disabled people into the civil service. The general conditions of access prior to recruitment are specified in (amended) Decree No. 95-979 of August 25, 1995 concerning the recruitment of disabled workers into the civil service.

The recruitment procedure by contract is an additional, exceptional means of entering the civil service and does not replace the competitive recruitment process which is the standard and preferred means of recruitment. It is designed to facilitate the recruitment of young scientists with disabilities. It enables recruitment for contractual positions for a one-year period which can lead to permanent status.

In line with the requirements of the general regime for the competitive recruitment of researchers, the assessment of candidates for contractual positions is undertaken by the relevant sections of the National Committee.
