accord de principe
☛ Le poste aménagé s’applique sur le principe que l’arrêt de travail n’est pas une obligation
mais un droit. Il ne s’applique qu’à des accidents « légers », c'est-à-dire n’occasionnant pas
plus d’une à deux semaines d’arrêt.
☛ Le reclassement temporaire est possible si :
• il s’agit de blessures légères, avec un arrêt de 1 à 2 semaines maximum
• la victime est d’accord pour occuper le poste aménagé jusqu’à son rétablissement
• la victime ne risque pas d’aggraver sa blessure ou de retarder la guérison
• la médecine du travail donne son accord de principe
I have checked the term accord de principe: agreement in principle...but not here

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

I am not sure, but it might be the solution here.
I hope this helps.
