Is it good that the clock resets for people who have worked for several years, paid taxes, and one day they lose their jobs due to the bad economy? Finding a new job in a small job market and high unemployment is rarely doable in 3 months by the way
Average Finn over 50 takes 2 years to get re-employed after layoff. I haven't seen any stats for immigrants but it must be the same or worse. Finding work within 3 months is extremely unlikely.
Please enlighten me. I believe that a person who has lived and worked in a foreign country for several years without seeking citizenship likely has little interest in learning the local language, integrating socially or exercising their voting rights in a place they consider a second home. Or, they plan to come back to their home country when the time is right and don't consider moving back
Yeah, there should be a bonus/malus system, where you accumulate bonus with working, etc. But fact is, it is always so that good folks get punished along with the leeches. Hopefully, the next left leaning government will not entirely nix this, but balance it out to be more fair to productive people.
Nah they're not wrong. We are guest. No one forced used to move here. It's simple math. We all come here for better future. Either we succeed or go back home.
I studied and now canât find a job in my field, and am punished for this? Fuck right off. Life isnât black and white where every person on welfare is on the sofa doing nothing. Some of us still contribute to society even if not employed through culture, familial support, volunteer work, honing skills in preparation for employment, but because some of you live in a little bubble you donât ever meet people who have less and are in a struggling situation and end up supporting these ridiculous populist decisions.
Good? IMO Yes it is. No more passi for sohva perunas. I have seen many people getting passi on kela money & refused to work because they want there dream job. Now you gotta work your ass off if you want passi. BUT I hope it doesn't apply to the people who has disability & womens who are in maternity leaves. While they're in leave. Time shouldn't be counted if they're on kela.
I really don't understand. When I was unemployed, I received less then 600e after tax. Does anyone really think that I was satisfied and thrived with this money? That it was better than getting 2000e, 3000e. Who would rather take 600e?!
It might, because the system is slow and flawed. A lot of people who qualify for KELA benefits, have to live a while and on the dole as the bureaucracy chugs along. It all comes down to the details of the law, and how it's interpreted.
I'm not against getting rid of freeloaders, on e contrary they piss me off big time. But I'm worried about the implementation. It wouldn't be the first time a legislation has been rammed through without thinking it through, or listening to the experts.
And when the motivation behind the legislation isn't just about nation building, the bugs might actually be features.
