I think original text is talking about incentives to be given to the work of a person, who is the second worker inside a couple (that is: there's a couple where both the persons work).

so whi using...
-...while working? better: to the work
-...as well to? better: the work of
-...in a couple life? better: to the couple

BUT I don't know French!
so I've problably misunderstood original text!
please forgive me if I rejected a correct translation. I always try to do my best

Don't be sorry, you are maybe right, your remarks sound good. Let's wait for the answer of joey.

Hello, here I think that "incitement" would be more suitable, unless the adjective "incentive" can be used in a substantival form, but in my dictionary, "incentive" is an adjective, and "financial" another one. Seems that it makes sense, in a sentence, to use a name with an adjective, and not two adjectives (uunless, as I said, this adjective is now commonly used as a substantive. So I would edit using "incitement" instead of "incentive", except if you can prove "incentive" is now commonly used the way it is typed in the translation.
