Job Programs for Long-Term Unemployed: New Employment Opportunities.

This act aims to establish job programs for long-term unemployed individuals to help them find stable employment. Local authorities will collaborate with employers, offering job search support, training, and supportive services. The goal is to provide every long-term unemployed person with opportunities to re-enter the workforce.
Key points
Creation of temporary job positions designed to lead to long-term employment, along with support and training.
Financial support for employers hiring long-term unemployed individuals, covering a portion of wages and benefits.
Prioritization of high-poverty areas or areas with chronically low employment rates for additional grants.
Ensuring that new job placements do not displace existing employees or infringe upon their rights.
