French Benefits 

A term coined by French economist, Emil Minty, in 1983. Known as FRINGE BENEFITS in the United States, France adopted this mantra to celebrate additional employee benefits approved by then president François Mitterrand. By 1984, most management level workers in Paris and Marseille were given a company car, subsidized meals, and health insurance.
