FIDAL Direction Internationale in France reports on the draft social security finance law for 2013. The draft legislation, soon to be reviewed by Parliament, contains measures such as a social levy (payable by the employer) of 20 percent on compensation paid out to employees following a negotiated termination agreement, a rise in employer contributions for accidents at work and occupational illnesses by 0.05 percent, and others. Overall, the impact is to raise the social security tax burden on taxpayers.
