Originally published in 1965, this comprehensive book delves into an essential yet often overlooked aspect of economic life: fringe benefits. These are the additional perks and benefits employers offer to their employees beyond wages and salaries. The book presents the findings of an extensive inquiry into the expenses associated with supplementary labor costs for manual workers, encompassing a detailed account of the diverse factors that contribute to variations in expenditure among different firms. It then provides comparative statistics for Western European countries, examining the economic implications of these varying levels of supplementary labor costs. Additionally, the book explores the situation in the United States, discussing the interplay between employer-financed welfare schemes and State social security programs. Chapters on pensions, sick pay, redundancy payments, and the historical development of paid holidays and subsidized welfare facilities such as canteens are included to provide a comprehensive understanding of this topic.
