The redundancy for personal reason, unlike the redundancy for economic reason,is intimately linked to the person of the employee. It is an essential concept inlabor law, found in most states in the world but often under different terminology. ln front of this report, wc wouId be tried to wonder if the regulations of the redundancy for personal reason are really variable from a country to another.The answer to this question requires a comparative analysis of the laws of certain states. For this reason, only France and Senegal, two States which are, in addition, strongly bound by the history, held our attention. The study of the law of dismissal for personal reason in France and in Senegal suggests both similarities and differences. This is justified also in more ways. Indeed, because France constituted the colonizing power of Senegal from 1854 to1960, French law largely influenced Senegalese law. But today, it seems that this impact tends to fade more and more. Indeed, it appears that at sorne point, Senegalese legislators realized that the ideal would be not to establish a labor law that is largely modeled on the Law of its old colonizing power but rather to develop a law that takes into account local and national realities. This assertion is also visible both through the Senegalese former Labour Code of 1961 than at the new Code of 1997. The OHADA legislator, for his part, has curb this trend. Careful analysis of the provisions of the preliminary Uniform Act on employment law suggests a real reconciliation with current French law. Our study is therefore an opportunity to analyze this original evolution. In a more precise way, it constitutes the occasion to count and explain the divergences noted within the French and Senegalese laws, but also to put forward the innovations brought by the OHADA Law.
