The full list of jerseys offered at the Tour de France Femme is as follows.

Yellow jersey/Mayo Jaune - worn by the overall leader with the lowest cumulative time.

Green Jersey - The green jersey is a points award. Riders earn points for intermediate sprints and stage finishes during the stage, and the woman with the most points leads the ranking.

Polka Dot Jersey - The red and white polka dot jersey is the mountain class. During the Tour de France femme, points are awarded to the first rider over certain hills and climbs, with the most points awarded for the toughest mountains. Again, the rider with the most points leads the standings.

White Jersey - The white jersey is the highest classification for young riders. It works in the same way as the yellow jersey, but only riders under the age of 23 are entitled to it.
