3. Incentive overseas holidays
4. Transport and meal allowances
5. Sense of purpose, or at least your task/assignment for the day is set. If you are not working, you will be hard pressed to find something meaningful to occupy your time.
6. You have weekends & public holidays to look forward to. If you are not working, every day is the same boring day.
7. Socializing with colleagues
8. Annual leaves. Somehow the feeling of going on leave for holidays is special. You feel you earned it.
9. Free or sponsored training for both professional and self developmental courses. If you are not working, you have to pay for everything yourself.
10. Depending on your job, your job title and name card can give you social status. I know many people derive pride from their job titles.

I tend to believe he is a Director and major share holder of a public listed company. Will do nothing other than getting benefits at the expense of other share holders.
If he is really a wage earner, I would suggest he goes to Greece so he can work until 67.
