The risk of exclusion from the ΔΥΠΑ (ΟΑΕΔ) registries threatens thousands of unemployed, which entails the termination of the validity of the card and benefits.
For the first time, ΔΥΠΑ will pay unemployment benefits even to those who find work during the benefit period. It is assumed that those who find work during the period of unemployment benefits will continue to receive 50% of the benefits until the scheduled end date of the period of payment of due amounts.
Exclusion from ΟΑΕΔ registries
The new amendments made to the provisions of the ΟΑΕΔ structure provide for the exclusion from the registers of the unemployed, who have been unemployed for a period of 6 months to 2 years (in case the unemployed person refuses the job offered to him or participates in the training program).
In particular:
- If the applicant refuses from three vacancies offered by ΔΥΠΑwhich correspond to the digital individual action plan and the specific characteristics of the applicant reflected in it, Benefits cease and the job seeker is removed from the employment agency’s digital registry for two years.
- If the applicant does not participate in continuing professional education or training programs, proposed by the agency, benefits are terminated and the applicant is removed from the DYPA digital registry for six months. Participation means following the learning event to completion and confirming the successful completion of the learning. Failure to draw up a digital individual action plan in cooperation with an employment consultant within the established time frame results in a 6-month deletion from the ΔΥΠΑ digital registry.
- If the job seeker fails to comply with other obligations related to his cooperation with the employment consultant, there will be more specific consequences provided for in this decision.
- At the same time, any person who applies for registration in the ΔΥΠΑ digital registry while working under a contract or employment relationship, or in the case of self-employment or self-employment (art. 30 para. 1 of Law 4144/2013 or art. 44 para. 2 of Law 3986/2011 ), or anyone being registered in the register, begins to work and does not immediately declare his employment to ΔΥΠΑ, is immediately removed from the ΔΥΠΑ digital registry and is not eligible to re-register. This can only be done after six months.
- In the event of a repeated violation within 12 months, he loses the right to re-register in the ΔΥΠΑ digital registry for 2 years.
- Benefits that were paid in such a case are recognized as unreasonably paid, and by decision of the administrator of ΔΥΠΑ, an administrative fine is imposed on them.
- Sanctions are also imposed in case of employment without proper declaration of this in ΔΥΠΑ.
What happens in case of a false claim?
If the applicant provides deliberately false information about information to the ΔΥΠΑ digital registry or the inability of the applicant to update this information within the time frame stipulated by the decision, occurs temporary exclusion from the digital register (Sanctions are imposed depending on the severity of the violation).
If as a result of the submission of information there were only distortions or omissions, then only measures are taken. And with deliberately indicated false information – others, especially if allowances and benefits were paid. Administrative penalties are imposed after calling the person held liable to give explanations in accordance with Article 6 of the Code of Administrative Procedure.
