During the debate, which took place at the RTL studios, the Minister of Labour, Employment and the Social and Solidarity Economy proposed that independents may insure themselves individually for the remainder of the crisis.
Both associations vehemently refuse this proposition, stating that independents still have to pay the exact same expenses as regular employees without having the same benefits.
Nevertheless, the press release notes that the unions accept Minister Kersch's invitation to discuss the issue in detail and find common ground.
