Human Resources / Works Councils
French term or phrase: droit de regard suspensif
sentence is "demandant un droit de regard suspensif le temps nécessaire au traitement social des questions liées aux fusions ou aux cessions d’entreprise"

I think "droit de regard" is right of examination but I don't understand how "suspensif" fits in.

Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestions

right of examination and a moratorium...
Explanation:
I think they mean they want the process (whatever it is) to be halted while they take a look. I understand this from 'suspensif *le temps nécessaire*'. I don't think it necessarily means 'suspensif' in the sense of it needing to be fulfilled to be completed because I'm not sure the works council would have this power.

Still, teher is also another solution, already given on ProZ:
droit de regard = right to monitor
