Disclosure of information about defined benefit plans [abstract] |
Employee Benefits | EMPLOYEE BENEFITS In France, pension funds are generally financed by employer and employee contributions and are accounted for as a defined contribution plan with the employer contributions recognized as expense as incurred. The Group has no actuarial liabilities in connection with these plans. Related expenses recorded for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 amounted to €774, €923 and €927 respectively. French law also requires payment of a lump sum retirement indemnity to employees based on years of service and annual compensation at retirement, which are accounted for as a defined benefit plan. Benefits do not vest prior to retirement. The liability is calculated as the present value of estimated future benefits to be paid, applying the projected unit credit method whereby each period of service is seen as giving rise to an additional unit of benefit entitlement, each unit being measured separately to build up the final liability. At December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 pension provisions recorded were €864 , €922 and €1,408 , respectively. As part of the measurement of the retirement indemnity to employees, the following assumptions were used for all categories of employees in 2019, 2020 and 2021:
| Population | Permanent staff
| Retirement age | 65
| Terms of retirement | Initiated by the employee
| Life expectancy | On the basis of the INSEE table
| Probability of continued presence in the company at retirement age | On the basis of the DARES table
(1)INSEE is the French National Institute of Statistics; DARES is the French Bureau of Studies and Statistics

The amounts in the table above reflect the impact of the April 2021 IFRIC decision on IAS 19 related to Attributing Benefits to Periods of Service. This decision resulted in a reversal for €226 of the provision at January 1, 2020 mainly due to the retirement indemnities in France, which, before this decision, were spread out as of the arrival of the employee in the Company and now only start from the date from which each service year grants benefit entitlements. The reduction of €255 related to the cost of past services/change in settlement terms recognized between January 1, 2020 and December 31, 2020 in connection with the settlement of the rights of those employees who left the Group, notably within the scope of the PSE.
