Thus, the Ministry of Labor is reducing the limit of access to public bonus from 50 years to 45 years in order to reintegrate the unemployed in this group into the labor market. And it slightly increases the amount of help.

That’s what El Periódico has access to and is stated in the latest draft incentives for labor recruitment, which the Government plans to approve at the Cabinet this Tuesday. People under the age of 30, women, people at risk of social exclusion and victims of violence sexist violence or terrorist It is one of the other priority groups of the royal decree.

Unemployment for people over the age of 45 has doubled since the real estate and financial bubble burst in 2007. At that time 5.7% of those over 45 were unemployed, today that number rises to 10.9%, according to the latest data from active population survey (EPA).

And many of the people who lost their jobs in the previous crisis were not able to re-enter the labor market afterwards. Since then, they have been one of the priority groups for managements when designing active employment policies, given the resistance of some companies to hire people over a certain age.

Yolanda Díaz, Second Vice President and Minister of Labor, One more step in protecting the senior unemployed and lowers requirements In order to benefit from recruitment incentives, it was already defined as the priority group over the age of 45 in the Labor Law, which was approved at the end of December and aimed to transform Sepe into a kind of government IT business.

On the other side of the generation scale, the royal decree is also bonuses to unemploy youth. Companies can receive a discount of up to 3,300 euros per year if they enter into an indefinite contract for a low-qualified person under 30. Another option that saves 366 euros a month is to hire someone under 30 to replace a worker on maternity or paternity leave.

more bonuses

These two are the group that benefited most from the new recruitment incentive package identified by Díaz. Previously, a long-term unemployed man, regardless of age, had access to a bonus of 1,300 euros per year. Now the amount in question is 1,536, which is 18.15% more.

Another priority group in care is women who have been unemployed for a long time, regardless of age. According to INE data, four out of every 10 unemployed women in Spain have been looking for a job for more than a year. The new royal decree Increases the amount of your help, albeit to a lesser extent, 2.4% more than the bonuses of 1,500 euros per year to 1,536 euros. For long-term unemployed men under the age of 45, the benefit will be €1,320, 20 € (1.5%) more than so far.

In all these cases, royal decree dictates that companies must hire these people full-time on an indefinite contract and maintain them for at least three years. In addition, unemployed people with social exclusion certificates, women victims of sexist violence and women victims of terrorism will be able to access a bonus of 1,536 euros for four years, one more than others.

Help with interrupted landlines

The royal decree, which aims to move the Ministry of Labor to the Cabinet this Tuesday, also includes: Assistance to companies that extend the working days of workers in the hospitality, trade and tourism sectors with an indefinite temporary contract. This is one of the stellar models promoted by the new labor reform, which aims to replace the casual use of the temporary contract. The problem for many of these workers is that they cannot operate throughout the year, and there are months when the company leaves them idle despite a promise to call them back when they are economically active.

The text, accessible to El Periódico, designs incentives for companies to retain these traditionally weaker workers in their respective industries during certain months of the year. If a company has an impermanent permanent record in February, March, and November, a 174 euro bonus per monthie savings of 522 euros in Social Security contributions per season.

Access to all these bonuses will continue vetoed all companies without equity plans, as is mandatory for all companies with more than 50 employees since March last year. According to the latest official data, it is a regulation that is poorly followed among companies, although it is criminal to omit it.
