Immediately transfer 50% of the TFR to be accrued annually to the workers' paychecks and leave the other half to companies: this is the government's plan to encourage the relaunch of consumption - The measure, according to what was revealed by Il Sole 24 Ore, would last at least for one year and up to a maximum of two-three years, initially for private employees.

The government plan: half of the severance pay already in the paycheck, the other half to the companies

Immediately transfer 50% of the severance pay to be accrued annually to the workers' paychecks and leave the other half to businesses: this is the plan being studied by the government to encourage the revival of consumption and support for productive activities, together with the stabilization of 80 EUR. The measure, according to what was revealed by Il Sole 24 Ore, would last for at least one year and up to a maximum of two-three years, initially only for private employees.

Half of the "maturating" severance indemnity portion would therefore be set aside monthly by the employer and could be paid directly to the worker, perhaps in a single annual payment, and no longer at the end of his working life. The choice would still be up to the employee. Then there is the issue of companies: in the dossier that will be examined on October 10th, there would also be the possibility for companies to maintain a share equal to 50% of liquidations. But the issue of compensation to companies has not yet been resolved. There are also some alternative options on the table, including the possibility of maintaining the preferential tax mechanism currently envisaged for the transfer of severance pay to pension funds. To avoid liquidity problems, the possibility of providing access to facilitated credit for the flow of severance pay to be transferred to paychecks or, alternatively, an ad hoc device with the involvement of Cassa depositi e prestiti would not be excluded a priori.

Meanwhile, the contours of the maneuver that will be set in motion with the stability law are outlined: around 15 billion, with which the government aims to maintain the commitments made, as a permanent Irpef bonus and a new cut in Irap.
