Employee benefits are company systems designed to support employees' lives and create a comfortable working environment. They are broadly divided into statutory benefits (mandated by law) and non-statutory benefits (voluntarily introduced by companies). These include social insurance, retirement benefit systems, various allowances, and other diverse programs that contribute to employees' life stability and motivation.
