There comes a simplification for layoffs and in many cases an increase in the allowance.
The maneuver abolished the first ceiling for layoffs, leaving only the highest one in force.
In practice, therefore, a worker who has a gross salary of 1,800 euros and until this year was entitled to 80% with a maximum of 998 euros gross (first ceiling) from next year will be entitled to 80% of his salary with a ceiling of € 1,199.
Nothing will change for wages below 1,200 euros gross (with 80% below the first ceiling) and those above 2,159 euros which already had the ceiling that will remain in 2022.
The only ceiling of the redundancy fund will therefore coincide with the highest ceiling set for 2021 at 1,199 euros gross (1,129 net) from which the personal income tax and 5.84% of social security contributions must be subtracted. In practice, therefore, the worker who goes into layoffs and has a gross salary of 2,000 euros should take 80% then 1,600 gross which, however, due to the ceiling this year would have become 998 euros gross and next year they will be 1,199 euros gross (1,129 net from which to remove the personal income tax and 5.84%) with about 200 euros more. A worker with a salary of 1,200 euros would have about a thousand euros with 80% in cash, at the level of the current limit (998) while one with a gross salary of 3 thousand euros would have had 1,199 euros this year this year (the maximum limit) and the samenext year (naturally revalued with respect to inflation)
