Bulgaria: Extraordinary unemployment benefits
Dnevnik.bg (30.03.2020) On 23 March the National Assembly adopted an Emergency Measures and Actions Act. One of the anti-crisis measures that the government has proposed to support businesses because of the Coronavirus epidemic is that the State pays 60% of workers' insurance income for up to 3 months if the employer pays the difference and commits not to cut people off. During this period, the insurance will be paid by the employer and the employee. The aim is to keep jobs until the worst part of the crisis is over because of the coronavirus epidemic.
