I social bond europei dello strumento “Sure” per la tutela di lavoro e reddito: un’esperienza di successo quale risposta coordinata e compatta alla crisi pandemica
di Germana Di Domenico – Ministero dell’Economia e delle Finanze.
The temporary Support to mitigate Unemployment Risks in an Emergency (Sure) – aimed at providing financial assistance up to €100 billion in the form of loans from the European union (EU) to those Member States requiring support to face sudden increases in public expenditure for the preservation of employment since 2020 – turned out to be a successful experience not only in terms of protecting both citizens and firms to mitigate the severely negative socio-economic implications of the coronavirus pandemic but also from the viewpoint of solidarity and mutual trust among Member States. By supporting short-time work schemes and similar measures to protect jobs and thus employees and self-employed against the risk of unemployment and loss of income, Sure has demonstrated how acting united and in a coordinated manner at the EU level can deliver more effective results with long-term benefits for all.
