“The government is considering new measures of compensation,” said Minister of Labour and Social Policy Denitsa Sacheva. “If new sectors need to be closed, sports or other kinds of events, new measures of compensation will have to be found, because the 60/40 measure is hardly likely to work. One option we are working on is to give double the unemployment benefits of 12 euro. The other is for the workers to be given 80% of their contribution basis without any participation by the employer,” Minister Sacheva said.
The Ministry of Labour and Social Policy is also considering how to help night clubs and educational centres because of the latest restrictions, the Bulgarian news agency BTA reports.
