"indemnité...couvrant...son préjudice de carrière".
I've got "damage to his career", which seems to be ok, but is there a more official term?

future loss of wages

: agreed with laenai's response, although other losses could also be the case here: seniority, holiday & pension rights, "droits acquis", etc. 'rights and advantages acquired' is IATE's take for employment context; 'vested rights' from GDT for law context

Jack Przybylski
: preferable to "loss of wages" which is too specific. "Préjudice de carrière" could also refer to reputation, employability, potential income offered by potential employer, etc
