Definition: Private schemes for employees

Category: ESSPROS Manual

Private schemes for employees are social protection schemes organised (but not necessarily run) by employers for their employees, former employees and their dependants. 

Two groups are distinguished:

(i) Contractual private schemes for employees;
(ii) Non-contractual private schemes for employees. http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/ramon/statmanuals/files/ESSPROS_manual_1996_EN.pdf#page=23
