Government will cover 50% of the June "prima" ("Christmas bonus") for workers who receive up to a minimum wage.

To access this subsidy, companies must certify that during the pandemic their income has decreased by at least 20%. The other 50% of the premium must be paid by the employer, however, companies may reach an agreement with the employee to pay in installments.
