Mini Dialogue

Cultural Note

Italian corporate welfare ('welfare aziendale') was significantly boosted by the 2016 Jobs Act and subsequent stability laws. Benefits under the welfare plan are tax-exempt for employees and deductible for companies. A 1,500-2,000 euro welfare plan effectively adds substantial tax-free value to total compensation.
