In the Gazzetta Official Journal No. 159 of July 9, 2024, published the "Decree of the Minister of Labor and Social Policies, in agreement with the Minister of Economy and Finance, May 21, 2024," which provides for the adjustment of the Bilateral Solidarity Fund for Professional Activities.
The Interministerial Decree of May 21, 2024, implements the provisions of the collective agreement signed on December 27, 2022, between Confprofessioni, Filcams CGIL, Fisascat CISL, and Uil-tucs, and aligns the provisions of the Bilateral Solidarity Fund for Professional Activities (established by the decree of the Minister of Labor and Social Policies) with the provisions on social safety nets during employment pursuant to Law No. 234 of December 30, 2021, as amended.
The regulatory provisions contained therein are fully in force from 9 July 2024 .
With regard to the new rules governing the Fund, the following should be highlighted.
Article 2 of the Ministerial Decree of 21 May 2024 redefined the scope of the Fund, which extends to employers in the professional activities sector who employ at least one employee , whereas previously the size requirement referred to employers with more than 3 employees.
Article 5 of the same inter-ministerial decree expanded the group of workers eligible for the protections guaranteed by the Fund, including workers hired under any type of apprenticeship contract, and explicitly confirming the exclusion of managers.
