The overall number of applicants to the Employment Service in search of work at the end of November is 1011 people which represents a variation on the previous month 888 people of 13.9. The Minister of the Presidency Economy and Enterprise Jordi Gallardo stressed that the Governments aim is to continue working to reduce this figure which reached its highest peak in mid-June with 1873 applicants through different policies to promote employability.Precisely Gallardo referred to the Program to promote recruitment to respond to the situation caused by the health emergency of SARS-VOC-2 through the public sector and social initiative entities. The people who have worked through this initiative follow a remarkably upward trend in the first months of implementation in which the staff hired by the Government and the Administration of Justice stand out. A total of 186 contracts have been made with this program.Specifically of the total 172 have been contracted through the Government and Administration of Justice and 14 by parapublic entities public companies non-profit social entities that work for social or employment inclusion in the Principality of Andorra and socio-labor inclusion companies. Of these 186 people 23 have left the Program to find another job and a total of 163 people remain active on December 15.This Wednesday the Council of Ministers has approved that the contracts made this year under this program can be extended until June 30 2021 under the same conditions. In this way taking into account that temporary contracting is established for a period of between one month and six months it is possible to extend these contracts.The extension takes into account the persistence of the health emergency situation which requires the adoption of additional measures relating to the Procurement Promotion Program that allow to continue supporting citizens beyond the initially established procurement period and limit thus the effects of the health crisis situation on the labor market.It is recalled that within the framework of this program the Government takes care of the monthly remuneration equivalent to the minimum wage of the people hired with the previous withholding of the contribution percentage paid by this person and the payment of the business contribution to the CASS for the duration of the contract. When the working day is less than forty hours of work per week the remuneration is proportional to the hours worked although the contribution to the CASS will be made for the minimum wage.Rental aid for establishments closed by COVID-19On the other hand Jordi Gallardo has advanced that a total of 114 correctly received applications have been received within the framework of the extraordinary program of aid for the rental of establishments closed due to the health emergency situation caused by the SARS-coronavirus.
