It is official, on June 25, 2020, the Government has
reached an agreement with the social agents (employers and unions) to extend
the effects of the ERTES linked to the health crisis until September. The
ratification of this decision and the associated aid will be done next Friday
through the approval of the corresponding Royal Decree.
This agreement has been delayed with respect to the
terms originally intended (June 15) before the expiration of said ERTES on June
30. One of the reasons for the delay in this agreement has been due to the
resistance that employers have shown in the face of the reductions that are
presented with respect to the discounts on Social Security contributions.
The executive’s proposal includes: Maintenance of FM ERTES (companies that have not
been able to resume their activity or that are forced to close due to
regrowth).
WHAT HAPPENS TO THE QUOTES OF THE COMING
MONTHS IN RELATION TO THESE FM ERTES?
TOTAL FORCE MAJEURE ERTES:
It is contemplated that bonuses will continue to be
applied to these FM ERTES, however the% of said bonuses will be progressively
reduced each month:
70% in
July.
60% in
August.
35% in September.
Companies with less than 50 workers.
50% in
July.
40% in
August.
25% in
September.
Companies with more than 50 or more workers.
This means paying 30%, 40% and 65% of the contribution
for workers, respectively, in the coming months for companies with less than 50
workers and 50%, 60% and 75% for companies with 50 or more workers.
PARTIAL FORCE MAJEURE ERTES:

workers who continue to be suspended.

40% on
the reinstated workers for the part of the working day actually carried out.

WHAT ABOUT ERTES FOR ETOP CAUSES?
Well, the bonuses provided for the ERTES of FM Partial
will be applicable to you, some bonuses that until now were limited to the
ERTES of FM.
The objective is to facilitate the transit of the
ERTES from FM to ETOP now that the State of Alarm has ended and promoting the
reincorporation of workers through the reduction of working hours.
New limits:

overtime.
Prohibition
of establishing or resuming the outsourcing of the activity and new contracts
directly or through ETTs.
Extension

procedures if the company is domiciled in a tax haven in the case, as well as
the prohibition to distribute dividends to the fiscal year in which the ERTE is
applied, except if the company previously pays the amount of the exemptions
enjoyed. These prohibitions will not be applicable to those companies that as
of February 29 had less than 50 workers.
Extension
of job maintenance to ERTES due to ETOP causes (in the case of those companies
that benefit for the first time from the exemptions mentioned, the computation
of job maintenance will start from the entry into force of the new RD).
Similarly, unemployment benefits will also be extended
until September 30, except for discontinued fixed payments that extend until December
31.
As you may know, this year’s INCOME TAX RETURN CAMPAIGN started on 1st April 2020 and all income for the year 2019 must be filed by 30th June 2020. This campaign is about to conclude. Hurry up and contact Moya & Emery asap:

There are numerous questions that generated the new
labor regulations related to the remedial measures of the effects of the
Covid-19 pickups, especially about ERTEs.
In front of the General Directorate of Labor -DGT-, the directive organ of the Ministry of Labor, any administrator can raise doubts about the application or scope of labor regulations. That is why that from Moya & Emery have collected some of those questions and the answers offered by the DGT setting its interpretive criteria and application guidelines.
Before the doubts planned about the interpretation of
the transition from total ERTE to partial ERTE in a RESTAURANT as a consequence
of the publication of RDL 18/2020, of May 27, the General Directorate of Labor has responded
to the following questions (you can have access to all responses with the full
text of the consultation with the DGT of 05-27-2020 , ref 726).
“1.- With the passage to Phase 1 of the de-escalation, the opening of
those bars and restaurants that have a terrace or outdoor space has been
allowed, allowing a maximum capacity of 50%, and guaranteeing the distance at
all times of security. This means that many businesses only available with
one, two or three tables L to provide the service. In this case,
given the reduced number of meals that can be offered, it is not profitable for
the business to open its premises in response to the new measures adopted with
the publication of Royal Decree-Law 18/2020, of May 12.
a) Do these businesses have the obligation to open to the public and
restart their activity, EVEN THOUGH YOU CAN ONLY OPEN A TABLE AND THAT
SITUATION?
b) Can it be considered that, as the government has allowed the opening
of such businesses, with the aforementioned restrictions, the cause of
force majeure that founded the ERTE carried
out disappears – even partially?
Both
questions can be answered as follows:
The
art. 1.2 of Royal Decree-Law 18/2020, of May 12, on social measures in
defense of employment, establishes the following:
“2. They
will be in force majeure partial derivative of the COVID-19, those companies
and entities with a record of temporary employment regulation authorized based
on Article 22 of Royal Decree-Law 8 / 2020 of 17 March, from moment
in which the causes reflected in said precept allow the partial recovery
of its activity, until June 30, 2020.
These
companies and entities must reincorporate the workers affected by
temporary employment regulation measures, to the extent necessary for
the development of their activity, prioritizing the adjustments in terms of
shorter working hours ”
In
this sense, the explanatory memorandum states that “In this way, companies
can recover all or part of their activity if, for the aforementioned
reasons, workers return to perform their tasks fully or partially, resigning or
modifying its application the unexceptional measures l is adopted at
a stage of interruption of business or more rigorous confinement, with the
only requirement to communicate, prior to the labor authority competent total renunciation
the same, and to the Public Service of State Employment those variations that
refer to the termination of the application of the measure with respect to all
or part of the people affected. ”
Therefore,
as deduced from this provision and as reiterated in the explanatory
memorandum of said royal decree-law, companies that have a temporary
employment regulation file authorized on the basis of article 22 of Royal
Decree-law 8 / 2020, of March 17, will be in a situation of partial force
majeure when two conditions are met:
1)
that the causes described in said precept, and for which reason
the different flexibility measures in the form of suspensions or
reductions in working hours were applied , allow the partial
recovery of its activity, until June 30, 2020 .
2)
that these companies reincorporate the affected workers , to the
extent necessary for the development of the activity, prioritizing
the adjustments in terms of shorter working hours.
It is the responsibility of the company to assess,
based on its particular circumstances, 1)
at what point in time the ERTE was authorized due to force
majeure, allow the partial recovery of its activity and 2) to what extent
the reinstatement of the affected workers, and in what percentage of your day
is necessary for the development of the activity.
“c) Can the decision not to open the business lead to the
return of all the contributions of the workers that have not been paid by the
exemption applicable to the ERTE due to Force Majeure?”
It
is understood that companies that have ERTES due to force majeure derived
from the COVID-19 authorized, will be in a situation of total or partial
force majeure as long as the company does not notify the labor authority
of the total resignation to ERTE. In the event that workers
have not been reinstated, the company will continue in a situation of
total force majeure .
On
the other hand, it should be remembered that the reimbursement of contributions
is linked to the obligation of commitment to employment provided in
the sixth additional provision of Royal Decree-Law 8/2020, in the
wording given by Royal Decree-Law 18/2020.
For
more information on the cases of return of the exonerated contributions, you
should contact the General Treasury of Social Security under the Ministry
of Inclusion , Social Security and Migration.
“d) If no opening for being a ruinous decision, or failure
to generate sufficient income to meet basic expenses, are we to understand
that the fact” to open “and the ERTE passes s er
part?”
“e) In that case, even if we cannot open due to being a deficit at
this time, would we have to pay (with
the corresponding exemption ) the social insurance of the
suspended workers?”
In
relation to these two questions, as has been said, only
when workers are reinstated to the extent necessary for the
development of the activity from the moment in which the force majeure
of the authorized ERTE allows the partial recovery of the activity, the company
will be in a situation of partial force majeure.
However,
questions about contributions must be raised before the Secretary of State
for Social Security and Pensions under the Ministry of
Inclusion. Social Security and Migrations.
“2.- Since the beginning of Phase O, some businesses have been allowed
to open, even partially, which is why many companies have been rescuing some of
the workers included in them from the ERTE.
a) Does the Royal Decree-Law apply retroactively to these
companies? If so, should the exemption percentages set out in the
aforementioned Royal Decree-Law be applied from the date of reinstatement of
the first worker? ”
For
labor purposes, the reinstatement of a worker included in the ERTE
entails the qualification of the company’s situation as “partial
force majeure” , regardless of whether it had occurred before the
entry into force of Royal Decree-Law 18/2020 .
But
this is understood without prejudice to the effects that may arise regarding
the application of Social Security regulations, about which the General
Treasury of Social Security, dependent on the Ministry of Inclusion ,
should be consulted . Social Security and Migrations.
“3.- With regard to the exemption percentages in the contributions
of workers in the cases of resignation from the partial ERTE established in
article 4.2 of Royal Decree-Law 18/2020, in the event of the rescue of a worker
at 50% of your working day, is it understood that I must contribute 15% of the
part corresponding to the 50% of the day in which the worker is actively
providing services, and 40% of the part corresponding to the remaining 50% of the
day? Or only 15% of the 50% of the day? Or 15% of the total
contribution base? ”
You
should ask the General Treasury of Social Security under the Ministry
of Inclusion. Social Security and Migrations.
“4.- In relation to article 1.3 of Royal Decree-Law
18/2020, is it only necessary to notify the Labor Authority of the renunciation
of the total ERTE, or also in cases of resignation of the partial ERTE?”
In
accordance with said art. 1.3, only the total resignation must
be communicated to the labor authority , which establishes that “The
companies and entities referred to in this article must communicate the total
resignation to the labor authority. in its case, to the file of temporary
regulation of authorized employment, within a period of 15 days from the date
of effect of that ·.
In
the same sense, the Explanatory Memorandum is pronounced by stating that not in
this way, companies can recover all or part of their activity if, for the
aforementioned reasons, workers return to perform their tasks fully or partially
, renouncing or modifying in its application the exceptional measures that were
adopted in a scenario of interruption of business activity or of greater rigor
in confinement, with the only requirement to communicate. in
advance. To the authority competent labor the complete surrender
to them, and the Public Employment Service State variations those relating
to l to completion of the implementation of the measure
in respect of all or part of those affected “.
“5.- In relation to article 4.3 of Royal Decree-Law 1812020, which
establishes that” for the exemption to be applicable, the communication
will be made for each contribution account code “, and for the case of a
company that has several businesses with different contribution account codes,
can the total ERTE be maintained in one business by not starting the activity
in it, and yet rescue part of the workforce in another business with a
different CCC that will restart its activity? All this taking into account
that everything has been processed in the same ERTE. And even more, the
same company, which has a part with a terrace that can open, and one
without a terrace that cannot open, can keep in the ERTE of Force Majeure the
staff of the establishment that does not have a terrace (since it still cannot
open in phase1)? ”
As
stated, the interpretation of art. 4 of Royal Decree-Law 18/2020
corresponds to the General Treasury of Social Security under the Ministry
of Inclusion. Social Security and Migrations.
“6.- In attention to the First Final Provision
Three, Safeguarding employment:” 3. This commitment to
maintaining employment will be valued based on the specific
characteristics of the different sectors and the applicable labor regulations,
taking into account, in particular, the specificities of those companies that
present high variability or seasonality of employment. ”
a) How should this paragraph be interpreted? Can certain exceptions
be applied to the hospitality sector as it is an activity conditioned by the
variability and seasonality of employment?
b) In what terms will seasonality be taken into account? Can I
communicate the end of the season to the discontinued landlines before the date
that is normally communicated to them?
c) In what terms should job maintenance be
calibrated ? Should the basic template to be maintained be the same
as in 2019? Taking into account the records of tourism, occupation,
reservation, etc.? Or can this basic template be relaxed, which must be
respected?
In a hotel, where there are employees exclusively assigned to the
swimming pool -for example · and the swimming pool is forbidden to open it, can
these people be subject to a 100% exemption for being prohibited and continuing
force majeure? Or all t orkers of the hotel, spend trading as
part ERTE?
In those cases, it is not a matter of billing, occupation or workload
(production), but there are parts of activity that are still prohibited and I
have no legal possibility to occupy them or to rescue them from ERTE. Can
I keep them 100% exonerated for continuing the ban? ”
It
has already been pointed out that the companies in which the two
conditions described above will meet in partial force majeure .
Questions
about the sixteenth additional provision of Royal Decree-Law 8/2020 in
the wording given by Royal Decree-Law 18/2020 should be asked before
the General Treasury of Social Security.
3.
Finally, it is recalled that the criteria set forth on the question raised is
not binding, but merely informative, as the Administration lacks
competence to make legal interpretations of that nature, which is exclusively
attributed to the courts.
The s other responses to the query raised DGT 05/27/2020 ( ref 733), which can
access the link to the document DGT 2 are as follows:
1. “Is the transition from full ERTE to partial ERTE (which
therefore affects the bonuses) mandatory by type of activity?”
The
art. 1.2 of the Real De creto-ley 18/2020, of May 12, on social
measures in defense of employment, establishes the following:
“2. Those
companies and entities that have a temporary employment regulation file
authorized on the basis of article 22 of Royal Decree-Law 8/2020, of March 17,
will be in a situation of partial force majeure derived from COVID-19, from the
moment in which the causes reflected in said precept allow the partial recovery
of its activity, until June 30, 2020.
These
companies and organizations should proceed to reinstate the
workers affected by measures of temporary employment regulation, to the extent
necessary for the development of its activity, giving priority adjustments in
terms of reduced working hours. “
In
this sense, the explanatory memorandum states that “In this way, companies can
recover all or part of their activity if, for the aforementioned reasons,
workers return to perform their tasks fully or partially, resigning or
modifying in its application the exceptional measures that were adopted in a
scenario of interruption of business activity or of greater rigor in the
confinement, with the only requirement of communicating, in advance, to the
competent labor authority the total resignation to the same , and to the Public
State Employment Service, those variations that refer to the completion of the
application of the measure with respect to all or part of the people affected.
”
Therefore,
as deduced from this provision and as reiterated in the explanatory memorandum
of said royal decree-law, companies that have a temporary employment regulation
file authorized on the basis of article 22 of Royal Decree-law 8 / 2020, of
March 17, will be in a situation of partial force majeure when two conditions
are met:
1)
that the causes described in said precept, and for which reason the different
flexibility measures in the form of suspensions or reductions in working hours
were applied, allow the partial recovery of its activity, until June 30, 2020
and
2)
that these companies reincorporate the affected workers, to the extent
necessary for the development of the activity, prioritizing the adjustments in
terms of shorter working hours.
It
is the responsibility of the company to assess, based on its particular
circumstances, 1) at what point in time the reasons for the ERTE being
authorized by force majeure allow the partial recovery of its activity and 2)
to what extent the reinstatement of the affected workers, and in what
percentage of your day is necessary for the development of the activity.
2. “What happens to the companies that based on the criteria
of the General Directorate of Labor (although not binding) and the statements
of the Minister of Labor, dated May 1, 2020, which indicated that it was
possible without problem to pass within an ERTE of Force Majeure from
suspension to reduction of working hours, have they done it before May 13? ”.
For
labor purposes, the reinstatement of a worker included in the ERTE entails the
qualification of the company’s situation as “partial force majeure”,
regardless of whether it had occurred before the entry into force of Royal
Decree-Law 18/2020 .
But
this is understood without prejudice to the effects that may arise regarding
the application of Social Security regulations, about which the General
Treasury of Social Security, dependent on the Ministry of Inclusion, Social
Security and Migration, should be consulted.
3. “The companies that initially requested a Force Majeure ERTE
with part of the workforce with suspension of working hours and part of
the workforce with reduced working hours and have not modified their activity
conditions, are they considered to be still in a situation of total ERTE Or
should we communicate that it is partial? ”
Companies
that continue to apply the authorized measures of suspension or reduction of
working hours, affect all or part of the workforce, to the extent that the
causes referred to in article 22.1 of Royal Decree-Law 8 / will continue in a
situation of total force majeure. 2020, prevent the restart of their activity
and, in any case, until June 30, 2020.
To
the extent that the two conditions described in question 1 are met, it will be
considered that these companies will enter a situation of partial force majeure
in accordance with art. 1.2 of Royal Decree-Law 18/2020.
4. “If an ERTE worker is recovered due to force majeure (either
going from suspension to reduction or joining full time from a reduction)
because it is observed that the activity may pick up, but it is subsequently
observed that it does not there is some workload, can it be totally affected
again in the ERTE of Force Majeure while it continues in force, provided there
is justification? ”.
Yes,
this will be possible until 30.6.2020 unless the company communicates the total
resignation to the labor authority.
3.
Finally, it is recalled that the criteria set forth on the question raised is
not binding, but merely informative, as the Administration lacks competence to
make legal interpretations of that nature, which is exclusively attributed to
the courts.

The
economic measures included in today’s Royal Decree Law are a first
package of urgent measures, which will take effect immediately. But these will
not be the last measures.
This afternoon I will have a
videoconference, as you know, with the Social Agents, specifically with the
leaders of the main unions and employers, to explain the measures adopted and
discuss with them other possible necessary actions, which would be approved in
the following days, such as benefits for working families for the care of children
due to the closure of the educational centres to which I have previously
referred (or others such as internal adjustment measures for staff to protect
employment or temporary postponements of social contributions for PYMES).
Naturally, the economic response to this
emergency would be facilitated if we could already count on new General
State Budgets, which are increasingly urgent. Some General Budgets that
will have to be no longer social, because they will have to alleviate the
ravages of an emergency that is sanitary but is also economic. If new budgets
were necessary a month ago, the crisis we are going through makes them urgent.
