“During the pandemic, state support for 2021. January. Received 16,510 employers for 9,1193 employees in downtime. Employment Service specialists carefully evaluate all documents submitted by employers regarding their eligibility for the subsidy Due to the minimal clarifications in the submitted documents, the contact is made with the employers, but in this particular case we want to make sure that the employer uses the received state support in a transparent manner, “said Giedrė Vitė, Deputy Director of the Employment Service.
In their wage subsidy applications, employers must provide the Employment Service with information on the salary specified in the employee’s pre-quarantine employment contract and the salary calculated for the period of inactivity. The employer must also present the documents justifying the payment of wages and the order on the announcement of downtime and indicate in it what salary will be paid to the employees during the downtime.
As reported, specialists from the Employment Service carefully evaluate all applications received by employers and supporting documents in order to verify the legality of the awarding and payment of subsidies. In the event of significant discrepancies in employer requests and supporting documents, or in the event of employee complaints about their work during downtime, the responsible authorities are contacted for official assistance in investigating potential abuses.
The assessment of employer subsidy applications filed this year pays particular attention to whether downtime subsidy applications filed in January do not report a significant increase in the employee’s salary, which was indicated in the previous year.
As of January 1. In 2006, an amendment to the Employment Law entered into force, modifying the procedure for the payment of inactivity benefits. Now 100% refunded. of the salary calculated by the employer, but not more than 1.5 MMA. Until 2021 January 1, 90% but not more than 1 MMA or 70% but not more than 1.5 MMA were reimbursed. The salary subsidy may not exceed the salary specified in the worker’s employment contract before the publication date of the quarantine.
Once the information on violations of legal acts has been received, the subsidies unduly paid will be recovered from the culprits in accordance with the procedure established by law.
