📋 Tender Overview
As of yesterday 166000 people were still registered for short-time work MP Alois Stoger SPO informed which is why it is so important to extend this instrument. In order to increase the purchasing power of the people affected he believes that the replacement rate must also be increased to 90. The same applies to unemployment benefits where at least 70 of the last income should be reimbursed.Stoger also addressed the situation of the Ukrainian refugees. Here less bureaucracy is needed for registration more German courses and sufficient protection against possible exploitation on the labor market.In addition the SPO social spokesman introduced a motion for a resolution which however remained in the minority. His parliamentary colleague Michael Seemayer thought it would make sense to extend the Corona short-time work aid to 26 months for a few companies that still need it.The improvements in rest periods for truck drivers who often have very difficult working conditions are also very important.
