Aspects to be taken into account in the new extension
The exemption percentages in Social Security contributions are modified.
The procedures for the suspension and reduction of the working day for economic, technical, organizational and production reasons linked to Covid-19 have been extended, in accordance with the provisions of article 3 of Royal Decree-Law 30/2020 of 29 September.
Companies that take advantage of the exemptions associated with ERTOs by Covid-19 must maintain the staff for a new period of six months. They will not be able to schedule overtime or outsourcing the activity. Temporary contracts may not be terminated and the ban on dismissal is maintained.
