The Government has introduced so-called SOS subsidies for people working, for example, under contracts, informed Labour Minister Milan Krajniak after the Government meeting on Tuesday. The subsidy, amounting to €210 per month, will apply to those who have had no income since March 12, that is since the Slovak economy was closed, or have no income for April. "We'll set it up so as to be able to launch it by the end of this week," stated Krajniak, adding that from next week it will be possible to apply in one and the same application for a half subsidy for March and a full subsidy for April.
