How can a government justify to only pay 90% of Mr. De Jong's minimum wage, but at the same time throwing €9500 a month to someone, just to keep they living standards? Sounds like senior management who forces pay cuts across the workforce but keeps theirs the same. Do you think Mr. De Jong will be spending money to boost and keep the economy going? It is just food for thought.
Mr De Jong will still recieve his normal pay, 100% of what he earned. His employer will recieve that 90%, but has to fully pay his employees.
So everyone will keep 100% of his pay..
