The Government has extended the aid of 400 euros per month, including within the call retraining program, aimed at people who exhaust their unemployment. This is the sixth time that the government decided to extend this provision due to the high levels of unemployment that supports the country; in fact, the president, Mariano Rajoy, had pledged himself that this provision would be in effect until the national unemployment rate set not lower than 20%.
This extension comes just days after it became known that the unemployment figures are down with some intensity in the region. The Principality ended July with 92,387 unemployed, the lowest figure since 2011 Nevertheless, according to the Labour Force Survey (EPA) prepared by the National Statistics Institute (INE), in the whole country, the unemployment rate was end of the second quarter at 24.4%, while in Asturias reached 21%.
This aid amounts to more than 450 euros (85% of public income multiple effects) for those with dependents. Recipients must show that they have actively sought a job or participating in activities to improve their employability for a month before accessing help.
“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, in addition to the reinforcement of 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 across Spain with dependents have benefited from the extended financial support (450 euros) to date. The Government undertook together with the social partners to 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 objectives of the Ministry of Employment momentum greater ratio of active policies of employment and unemployment protection system is to reduce the search time and facilitating early return to work.
The brutal rise in unemployment during the recession years has meant that, according to figures just released the CCOO union, the region has more than 43,000 unemployed who do not collect unemployment benefits. The union said it was necessary to enhance the so-called social wage that gives the Principality since 2006 to families who lack any other recourse. According to one recent balances in the region there are over 5,000 families that are pending administrative procedures in order to collect aid is resolved. Those are the latest figures provided by the Ministry of Social Welfare, which has committed to pay this wage in the first six months of the year 39.5 million euros, for a total of 12,198 beneficiaries, the highest since it started in implement this provision, which aims to provide resources “to live in a manner consistent with human dignity” and avoid social exclusion of families who lack financial resources.
