| Summary: | The article aims to analyse in a socio-economic context the concept of unemployment at the European level. Combating poverty and social exclusion must be an objective for every state. In this way, the legislative mechanisms necessary to be able to ensure the well-being of all citizens both in peacetime and in wartime are put into relation. At the European level, in order to deal with this aspect, numerous political and social protection measures on unemployment have been implemented in all Member States. European legislation on unemployment traces a direction to government decision-makers to facilitate the provision of financial assistance to eliminate the risk of marginalization, poverty and social exclusion. Even so, unemployment continues to generate social inequity in the vulnerable population compared to the general population. For many families in risk situation, the unemployment allowance is the only source of income that cannot cover the needs of the minimum daily basket, which can lead to dependence on other complementary social protection measures, or different forms of support. In the absence of alternatives on the labour market, people in risk groups turn to this form of support and to benefit from the minimum package of social insurance. |
