Internship-exchange, missions abroad /Covid19


Communiqué from the President: Management of missions in France and abroad 09/11/2020


Dear Colleagues,

As previously indicated, staff members who are required to travel outside the university for professional reasons are invited to complete a derogatory travel certificate mentioning the following reason: "Travel between home and the place of professional activity" (reason 1). In addition to this certificate, these staff members must have the corresponding mission order signed by you.

With regard to the management of missions in general, the current regulations do not provide for any restrictions on business travel in metropolitan France. The usual procedure for managing missions remains applicable.

For your information, on receipt of a mission order from the Presidency/Directorate General of Services, the opinion of the Defence Security Officer (FSD) is sought in order to ensure the technical feasibility and favourable security conditions of the trip. For any mission within the framework of research activities, the opinion of the Vice-President for Research is also sought.

In view of the current context, I would ask you to make staff members requesting a mission aware of the need to check beforehand on the conditions of accommodation and the means of transport (outward and return) available. In the event of travel abroad, it is advisable to check the situation at the borders beforehand. The list of countries receiving French nationals is updated daily. Mrs Florence Andrzejewski, Security Advisor (FSD) and Risk Engineering, is at your disposal to study with you the technical feasibility of the travel of your staff.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Yours sincerely

Philippe Ellerkamp
President of Avignon University
