雙語(yǔ)環(huán)球:德國(guó)失業(yè)者須做“1歐元”工作
Jobless workers in Germany are now required to accept jobs paying just 1 euro an hour. Those include jobs such as sweeping the streets, planting trees and removing graffiti and so on。
The German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung reported Tuesday that German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle issued a proposal that calls for all beneficiaries of unemployment compensation to accept jobs offered by the Federal Labor Agency in Germany, or their unemployment compensation would be reduced。
After a blizzard hit Germany a few weeks ago, Westerwelle also mobilized unemployment recipients to shovel snow。
Besides, Hannelore Kraft, a politician with the German Social Democratic Party, advanced a suggestion to send jobless people to read books or sweep streets for senior tenants at nursing homes. These jobs are actually the "1 euro" jobs provided by the German government for those who have been out of work for a long time and offer only 1 euro per hour or about 200 euros a month。
The jobs mainly include some public service activities and urban construction work, and workers are required to sit through three to four weeks of training in advance。
According to the report, at first the "1 euro" job was voluntary, but many lazy unemployed workers were unwilling to take those jobs. So the number of beneficiaries of unemployment compensation gradually increased to 6.7 million, creating a heavy burden on the German fiscal system。
Therefore, the German government is making it compulsory for beneficiaries of unemployment compensation, especially younger people, to accept the "1 euro" jobs。
Refusing to do so would cost them unemployment compensation。
掃大街,種樹(shù),清洗墻上涂鴉……這就是德國(guó)失業(yè)者的新工作。在德國(guó)各界的壓力下,德國(guó)失業(yè)者被要求做“1歐元”工作。
據(jù)德國(guó)《南德意志報(bào)》16日?qǐng)?bào)道,德國(guó)外長(zhǎng)韋斯特韋勒近日建議,失業(yè)金領(lǐng)取者必須接受勞動(dòng)局分配的工作,否則將減少其失業(yè)金。幾周前暴風(fēng)雪席卷德國(guó)時(shí),他曾建議那些失業(yè)救濟(jì)金領(lǐng)取者去鏟雪。
而社民黨政治家克拉夫特女士也提出,讓常年失業(yè)者為養(yǎng)老院的老年人朗讀書(shū)籍或去掃大街。這些工作其實(shí)就是德國(guó)政府專(zhuān)門(mén)為長(zhǎng)期失業(yè)人員提供的“1歐元”工作,即每小時(shí)工資只有1歐元,一個(gè)月也只有200歐元。工作內(nèi)容主要是公益性活動(dòng)或?yàn)槌鞘薪ㄔO(shè)出力,工作前需要進(jìn)行三四周的培訓(xùn)。
報(bào)道稱(chēng),“1歐元”工作原本是自愿行為,但許多懶惰的失業(yè)者不愿參與這些工作。德國(guó)靠領(lǐng)取失業(yè)救濟(jì)金生活的人越來(lái)越多,已達(dá)670萬(wàn),這給德國(guó)財(cái)政帶來(lái)很大負(fù)擔(dān)。為此,德國(guó)政府打算強(qiáng)制所有領(lǐng)取失業(yè)救濟(jì)金的人特別是年輕的失業(yè)者承擔(dān)“1歐元” 工作,否則將無(wú)法拿到失業(yè)金。
