The president of the National Federation of Self-Employed Associations (ATA), Lorenzo Amor, will ask the government on Monday to waive the contributions of self-employed whose businesses suffer from restrictions on capacity and schedule, because “you cannot pay one hundred percent of the contribution when activity is limited to half.” .
“Self-employed workers cannot be treated as second-class citizens. There are actually exceptions to the workers’ contribution when there are any restrictions on working hours or capacity through the Temporary Employment Regulation Files (ERTE) to restrict activity by an administrative order. Are the self-employed less? “
Omar notes that on Monday, the day negotiations begin with the government to extend aid to stop activity for the self-employed, they will also request the abolition of the requirement to access the benefit that requires them to be beneficiaries of the activity cessation between March and June to allow seasonal workers.
