The Government has it extended the aid of 400 euros per month in the program of retraining for people who exhaust their unemployment benefits, the so-called ‘Prep Plan’ with effect from the 16th of August, as confirmed Yesterday the Ministry of Employment. This measure will affect about ten thousand malagueños long-term unemployed who do not receive any subsidy.
To date, this support has been extended six times, after the last produced last February. This program of up to six months is intended to raise standards and improve the employability of long-term unemployed or those with dependents depleting unemployment benefit contributory or any of the subsidies.
This provides for the development of personalized itineraries insertion design the Public Employment Services depending on the characteristics of the beneficiary and economic aid to accompany around 400 euros a month (75% Public Income Effects Multiple). This aid amounts to more than 450 euros (85% of Public Indicator of Multiple Effect Income) for those beneficiaries with dependents.
Recipients must show that they have actively looked for a job or participating in measures to improve their employability for a month before agreeing to help.
The Government Prepares Plan considers the advances in the dual purpose of alleviating a real situation and need to recover the use of collective beneficiaries.
Prepare Plan was amended in August 2012 after evaluating the program in force until then. This evaluation identified a number of limitations in the previous design that made it necessary to reinforce their effectiveness and greater linkage of aid to the situations of greatest need, explained the department headed by Fatima Banez.
Therefore, the reform program in August 2012, alongside increasing personalized employment services to the group of beneficiaries, is allowing aid to be concentrated in those groups with greater difficulties to return to the labor market. In fact, the Ministry of Employment estimated that nearly 45,000 people with dependents have benefited from the extended financial support (450 euros) to date.
Automatic Extension of plan
The Plan Prepare continue prorrogándose automatically every six months as long as unemployment is above 20%. The unemployment rate stood at 24.47% of the labor force in the second quarter, according to the latest Labour Force Survey.
The Government has agreed with the social partners to put implement a recovery plan for employment and improved protection. This plan will provide priority to long-term unemployed, those with low educational level and the unemployed with dependents in households without earnings.
The increase in unemployment in these years also forced the Executive to make an extra effort to extend coverage to the unemployed. The Ministry of Labour launched in 2009, the Program Temporary Unemployment Protection and Integration (Prodi), which gave the famous 426 euros for six months unemployed who exhausted all coverages. In the year and a half of their term favored over 50,000 local people. In February 2011, the Prodi was replaced by Prepares plan, a program of retraining, with help from 400 euros for up to six months for unemployed access to perform a custom individualized itinerary insertion, with a commitment participation in courses of unemployment. Málaga is estimated that a total of 10,000 to benefit from the new aid. Its only drawback is that they can not choose those who have already claimed the 426 euros of Prodi.
These hospice programs do not hide an untenable reality. In Spain there are over one million households with all members unemployed. And in Málaga, four out of ten unemployed not charge any unemployment benefit, either because they exhausted all existing aid or as people who have never worked before so, although targeted lists the Andalusian Employment (SAE) have not given the right to receive them. This leaves about 70,400 Malaga without charging anything from the state and without any prospect of placing the medium term.
