1.3.5.1.Income

The labour market policy budget relies primarily on revenue from the following sources:

  • - contributions to unemployment insurance;
  • - a general federal contribution of ATS 2.5 million for labour market policy (this sum will be adjusted in future in accordance with the consumer price index);
  • - transfers from the equalisation fund for family allowances through which a share of expenditure on family benefits is reimbursed;
  • - contributions deriving from ESF cofinancing;
  • - contributions from local authorities (if no child-care facilities can be provided).
