Amendment 14 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 1
(1) Member States have been affected by the crisis due to the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic in an unprecedented manner. The crisis deepens social cleavages, increases job losses and inequalities, and hampers growth in Member States, which in turn aggravates the serious liquidity shortages due to the sudden and important increase in public investments needed in their health systems and other sectors of their economies. This has created an exceptional situation which needs to be addressed with specific measures.

Amendment 35 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 10
(10) For the ESF, Member States should primarily use the additional resources to support job maintenance, including through short-time work schemes and support to self-employed, job creation, in particular for people in vulnerable situations, support to youth employment measures, education and training, skills development and to enhance access to social services of general interest, including for children. It should be clarified that in the present exceptional circumstances support to short-time work schemes for employees and the self- employed in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic can be provided even when that support is not combined with active labour market measures, unless the latter are imposed by national law. Union support to those short-time work schemes should be limited in time and should be conditional to maintaining the same level of working and employment conditions and rights including protection against lay-offs and reduction of wages, no bonuses to managers or dividends to shareholders. As public means are being used to uphold employment levels, recipients of Union support should not be based in tax havens, and should not subvert collective bargaining, workers’ participation or codetermination in company decision- making processes.
