Content of measure
The "uncovered costs" can be determined as the difference between total income, subsidies for the compensation of the partially unemployed, other public aid and insurance benefits received and the amount corresponding to 75% of operating costs. By way of derogation from the above, an amount corresponding to 100% of operating costs will be taken into account if the enterprise has been subject to a closure obligation. The maximum aid intensity will be 70% of the "uncovered costs" for medium and large enterprises and 90% of the uncovered costs for micro and small enterprises, but the total amount of aid may not exceed €20,000 for a micro enterprise, €100 000 for a small enterprise and €200,000 for a medium or large enterprise. The concerned sectors are: sectors of tourism, catering, events, culture, entertainment, continuing vocational training organisations, companies in the in-store retail sector and similar sectors, such as the personal care sector.
