News n.27/2024

In the Gazzetta Ufficiale No. 159 of July 9, 2024, the "Decree of the Minister of Labor and Social Policies, in agreement with the Minister of Economy and Finance of May 21, 2024" was published, which provides for the adjustment of the Bilateral Solidarity Fund for professional activities.

The interministerial decree of May 21, 2024, incorporates the content of the collective agreement signed on December 27, 2022, between Confprofessioni, Filcams CGIL, Fisascat CISL, and Uil-tucs, and adapts the regulations of the Bilateral Solidarity Fund for professional activities (established with the decree of the Minister of Labor and Social Policies) to the regulations regarding social safety nets during employment as per Law No. 234 of December 30, 2021, and subsequent amendments.

The regulatory provisions contained therein are fully effective from9 July 2024.

The following should be noted regarding the new regulations of the Fund.

Article 2 of the Ministerial Decree of May 21, 2024, has redefined the scope of application of the Fund, which now extends to employers in the professional activities sector who employ at least one employee, whereas previously the size requirement was referred to employers with more than 3 employees.

Article 5 of the same interministerial decree has expanded the pool of workers eligible for the protections guaranteed by the Fund, including workers hired with any type of apprenticeship contract, and explicitly confirming the exclusion of executives.
