The nurse must be reinstated in her duties "within a month", said the administrative court of Paris.
Administrative justice considers the dismissal of a nurse by the hospitals in Paris disproportionate because she refused to remove her calot. The caregiver, who denounces a "hunt to witches", is relieved.
Nurse since 2018 at the Hospital of Pitié-Salpétrière, Majdouline B. had been dismissed on 10 November 2025. For a year, the management accused him of wearing daily and in all circumstances a calot, fabric protective equipment, usually carried to the operating room or in resuscitation.
The management accused the nurse of permanently wearing this protective equipment in fabric, usually carried to the operating room or in resuscitation. If the judge of the interlocutors considers that the nurse "committed a fault", he points out a "absence of proportion" in the sanction.
A nurse from Pitié-Salpêtrière (AP-HP) had been dismissed in November by her management for keeping a calot on her head outside the operating room. The healthcare worker in question filed an appeal before the Paris Administrative Court on 23 December.
The interlocutory judge held that the nurse had "committed a misconduct such as to justify a disciplinary sanction", but that there could be a "absence of proportion" between the misconduct committed and the sanction.
