Employee Benefits

Encouraged by a favorable legislative framework in many countries, employee benefits allow public authorities to effectively implement social policies, boost economic attractiveness and fight against the informal economy.

For companies, these benefits promote employee loyalty by maximizing the in-kind portion of human resources policies. 

For employees, they offer additional purchasing power when used within a network of Edenred merchants.

For their part, these merchants have access to a pool of qualified consumers who provide them with additional revenue.
