Lindner wants a job boost for all citizens’ benefit recipients – standard rate “tends to be too high”. For single people, this means an increase of 61 to 563 euros per month.
Adults who live with a partner receive 506 euros. For children and young people, the rates are between 357 and 471 euros, depending on age. The head of the Federal Employment Agency (BA), Andrea Nahles, relies on regular appointments at the job center. Now we also expect you to be involved in working life, says Nahles.
