Nadia Calviño and Yolanda Díaz will negotiate the unemployment benefit reform , after their clash to approve it before the end of the year. Economy assumes that the change does not translate into a cut in benefits, as demanded by the Ministry of Labor, but in exchange the second vice president accepts that unemployed people who reject job offers be penalized. The reform of unemployment protection in Spain, which is pending to receive the fourth disbursement of European funds , has generated in recent days an unprecedented confrontation between the Ministry of Labor and the Ministry of Economic Affairs, with an escalation of tension between both which has worsened, reaching levels not seen before between two members of the same Government.

The root of the conflict lies in the design of this reform, since the ministries led by Nadia Calviño and Yolanda Díaz have completely  Country Email List different proposals . Duration and amount of the subsidy The idea of ​​the Ministry of Economy is that the unemployed person who finds a job maintains both sources of income for a time, but that the unemployment benefit is progressively reduced until it disappears altogether. On the other hand, Labor is in favor of making the subsidy and employment compatible, but only for 45 days , a limitation that “will encourage the underground economy,” according to senior officials from Calviño's team.



Yolanda Díaz is completely opposed to the Economy proposal, and sources close to the second vice president tell ECD that the Government will not approve any change that entails a cut, something that they assure that Sumar has agreed with the PSOE within the framework of the investiture of Pedro Sánchez. In fact, they intend to keep the subsidy in force for 30 months and not gradually reduce it. Do not progressively reduce aid Sources from the Government's economic leadership highlight to Confidencial Digital that, despite the media noise, the only area in which Economy and Labor collide head-on is in the progressive reduction of aid .
