    Description
    The Social Security Commission of Namibia aims to enlarge its offer of social security schemes to encompass unemployment benefits. The contribution requested to SOCIEUX+ was mainly on exploring policy and organizational possibilities according to the context; to this purpose, SOCIEUX+ mobilized experts from France, Lithuania, Romania, and Spain. They have first been looking into the recent COVID-related stimulus package to protect laid-off workers and explore possibilities to integrate those measures into a structural instrument. Experts then looked at options for financing such a scheme, and how it would be governed and administered by the Social Security Commission. Such technical background will prove useful in the event Namibia will decide to move forward with the introduction of unemployed benefits.
