Those who do not have a job and do not have or do not want a vaccination slide even deeper into unemployment.
The legal situation is complex and the authorities are at a loss.
Munich - no protection without vaccination - and no job without vaccination.
For many who are stuck in unemployment and do not have a vaccination certificate, the path to gainful employment becomes even more difficult.
The authorities are frustrated - because the state has to pay.
There are no sanction options.
The patterns are often similar: Hartz IV recipients receive new addresses of potential employers, but these require potential candidates to have negative corona tests, vaccination or recovery certificates.
But if the candidate cannot provide any of these, the search is a short one.
The way out of unemployment will then be even longer.
Reluctance to vaccinate among low-income earners is particularly great
3.9 million people are currently receiving unemployment benefit II. It is feared that the number will rise again due to the current situation.
As the Hans Böckler Foundation found out in a survey in June 2021, the reluctance of low-income earners is particularly great.
Only 49 percent of this group have already had their first dose of vaccine.
Among the higher earners, this is 71 percent.
The problem is getting worse right now if the frustrated employment agencies are to be believed.
An agency from the west of Germany said of the
Focus
: “We have no legal control against it.
The reason is that there is no general compulsory test or vaccination in Germany, on the basis of which one could sanction vaccination refusals. "
Opponents of vaccination have an easy job if they just want to continue Hartz IV
Because of the complex legal situation, opponents of vaccinations have an easy game.
With the exception of the care sector, the employer has no right to test or vaccination as a prerequisite for recruitment.
Officially, the candidates are not rejected for refusing to vaccinate, but for other pretended reasons such as lack of qualification or poor application documents.
The Federal Employment Agency in Nuremberg knows the problem: “At the moment there is no general compulsory vaccination, so it is a question of labor law to what extent the employer can make a vaccination as a condition for employment.
Even with the employer's test offer, there is no general obligation on the part of the employees to accept the offer. "
Even with the self-employed who have paid into unemployment insurance, there is the phenomenon when they lose customers who do not want to work with unvaccinated people.

A higher percentage of severe corona courses than previously assumed is due to autoantibodies.
That is the result of a study.
