In a move aimed at recognising the unique challenges faced by private and self-employed workers with atypical hours, the Ministry for Finance and Work has announced the distribution of another round of financial support.
Beginning Monday, December 4, 2023, approximately 25,000 individuals in Malta and Gozo working in the private sector, specifically those who engage in shifts, weekend work, or work after 6:00 PM, will receive a €150 cheque by post at their homes.
This financial relief is extended to workers and self-employed individuals whose annual income does not exceed €20,000. The initiative, initially introduced in the 2022 Budget, reflects the government’s commitment to providing support to those who contribute to the workforce in non-traditional working hours.
