[PARIS] Should a heart attack during an adulterous tryst on a business trip count as a work-related accident? A French court has ruled it should, surprising even seasoned watchers of the country's protective legislation. Read more at The Business Times.

The judgement, which only came to the attention of local media in recent days, found that having sex was as normal as"taking a shower or having a meal" and that Mr Xavier was still entitled to his company's protection.

Rouen-based lawyer and lecturer Sarah Balluet, who brought the case to public attention on social media, said it lowered the bar for workplace accidents. Ms Balluet argued that in her view by engaging in sex the technician had"removed himself from his employer's authority". Ms Balluet described the ruling as"surprising" compared with previous rulings by the Cour de Cassation, France's highest court,"which has always attempted to establish whether or not the employee was carrying out his professional duties."
