Social safety nets and activation. The economic crisis has had an unprecedented impact on social welfare. The most pressing priority for the Government is to provide immediate support to the most vulnerable to help alleviate the impact of the renewed downturn. Already, a temporary package of humanitarian measures on food, housing and access to electricity has been adopted and will be phased- out to coincide with the implementation of the nationwide rollout of the guaranteed minimum income scheme (GMI). In order to get people back to work, the authorities, working closely with European partners, have taken measures to boost employment by providing short-term work opportunities to 52,000 people targeting the long-term unemployed. In addition, the Government will issue the required JMDs and will roll out by September 2016 further active labour market integration schemes which will combine public work and activation (personalized services, upskilling, re- skilling) measures covering some 43,000 persons, who are furthest away from the labour market, including long term unemployed and GMI beneficiaries. The Government will support further job creation schemes through wage subsidies, vouchers etc. for some 90,000 participants by December 2016. In addition, activation measures and training will be provided for 21.500 participants by December 2016.
