Bus/Financial - Accounting / payroll expenses
French term or phrase: AGS
This is an abbreviation from a statement of payroll expenses. Other items in this section pertain to health insurance, unemployment insurance, retirement benefits, social security contributions, etc., so this should be something similar. Unfortunately, it seems to be a very common acronym, and I could not find anything relevent with a google search.

Assurance pour la Garantie des Salaires
Explanation:
I think this is what you are looking for. It is not "redundancy" insurance as such, but a fund that guarantees that employees will be paid if the company goes under. Perhaps something like Employer Insolvency Insurance?

AGS


Explanation:
AGS = Association pour la Gestion du régime de garantie des créances des Salariés
http://www.ags-garantie-salaires.org/index.php?idmenu=21&ida...|&idPage=db6aa56c6ccb1b1a2b811d530f842c4a

Le régime de garantie des salaires permet, si votre entreprise est en redressement ou liquidation judiciaire, de vous garantir le paiement, dans les meilleurs délais, des salaires, préavis et indemnités auxquels vous pouvez avoir droit.

Le lien suivant en anglais parle de "wage guarantee scheme" et traduit AGS par "Association for the Management of the Employee Payment Guarantee Scheme"
