Do not do anything at work (Lazy)
<p>If in an office in a company (an office job in front of the computer what) well... in fact... I look at the screen of my computer, I freeze, I do nothing for... 6 hours then I I barely work 2 hours.. every day then I look at the time until the day is over, what am I risking? Because since I passed the trial period (in France), I'm immune to being fired, right?</p>

<p>You could look at <a href="https://www.oecd.org/els/emp/France.pdf" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this summary</a>, which explains the formal requirements for sacking an employee (e.g. notice, the 'registered letter' requirement, etc). Also see <a href="https://ewll.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/EWLL-2018-dismissal-law-french-report.pdf" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this longer analysis</a> of dismissal law in France. The issue you would be interested in is point 5, definition of unfair dismissal.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>There must be real and serious grounds for a dismissal to be deemed
fair. Grounds may be personal or economic. Dismissal on personal
grounds (art. L. 1232-1): the employer must justify grounds that are
valid and related to the individual in order to proceed with
dismissal. These may include professional misconduct, incompetence,
inaptitude [sic], etc. An employee who is declared unfit by the
physician must be reclassified by the employer, taking into account
his or her capacities (Articles L. 1226-2 and L. 1226-10).</p>
</blockquote>
<p>There is a distinction between disciplinary and non-disciplinary misconduct, the former having three degrees (faute simple, faute grave, faute gross) and which seems to be about the concept &quot;toxic work environment&quot;. The non-disciplinary grounds seems more clearly relevant, especially in that your conduct would negatively impact the execution of the work. But staring at a screen does not itself constitute a firing offense, the failure to perform work is where the problem comes from. Yes, if you don't do the work, you can be fired for not doing the work.</p>

<p>The labour laws in France are outlined here</p>
<blockquote>
<p><a href="https://cms.law/en/int/expert-guides/cms-expert-guide-to-dismissals/france" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Employment termination law and legislation in France</a></p>
<p><strong>1.1 Reasons for dismissal</strong><br />
The employer must establish a real and serious reason to dismiss an employee.<br />
It may be:</p>
<ul>
<li>a personal reason, notably a fault (disciplinary ground), <strong>poor performance</strong>, disablement of the employee when the employer is unable to relocate / redeploy him to another position or make reasonable adjustments to his post; or<br />
. . .</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<p>So you are not immune from being fired.</p>
