The minister presented Friday the simplified procedure to accessing by the employers the furlough funds put at their disposal.So, the payment will be carried out in maximum 15 days from the date the employer submits the documents to the county employment agencies, Violeta Alexandru said. She stressed that a first step to be completed by each employer is to prepare the documents so that at the beginning of April, for the period from 16 to 31 March, the documents be ready to be presented to the agencies for the payments to be done.
The minister added that the employers do not have to advance any payment from their own coffers for furlough, stressing that the declarations lodged by the employers will not be verified momentarily by the authorities.
