This comes as part of the 106 requests submitted by companies for partial unemployment in December, showing a slight increase of three requests compared to the previous month.

The impact of these approvals extends to over 8,000 employees. It is worth noting, however, that historical trends indicate that the initially reported number of affected workers often exceeds the actual count of those placed on short-time work.

In a notable example from August, out of an initially reported 8,000 workers, only around 1,300 ultimately transitioned to short-time work.
