CaritasWork is no longer a guarantee to escape poverty

RTL Today
Employment no longer keeps people out of poverty, Caritas stressed on Tuesday in the run-up to the 1 May bank holiday.

For this reason, the charity demands the implementation of a fair tax reform that ensures “real redistribution,” as well as the regular adjustment of family allowance and other benefits, the expansion of professional training opportunities, increased efforts to achieve a work-life balance, and the determination of the minimum wage in accordance with a “reference budget.”

Further details on Caritas’ position can be found on their official website (in English).
