From the Rdc to the Sfl. From Citizenship Income to Support for training and work . This is the new direction of welfare in which the Sardinians are also trying to navigate, after Giorgia Meloni's Government, in the middle of summer, decided to cut bonuses and subsidies linked to unemployment. "They represent - the Prime Minister has always repeated - a paternalistic vision of Italy because they take away the dignity of those who are in a position to find a job and be an active part of this country".

As with the RDC, the SFL is also a measure managed by the INPS , in synergy with the Ministry of Labour. However, the numbers on the beneficiaries of the new support for training and employment have not yet been obtained from the periodic observatories of the National Insurance Institute. We only know how many so-called RDC tutors have lost the right to social contributions. And from here we can begin to reconstruct the regional context picture, and then explain how the application to obtain the SFL looks like.

In Sardinia, in 2023, there were 49,890 families who received at least one month's citizenship income , for a total of 91,835 citizens, including minors. The average amount of the RDC was 518.17 euros, which placed the island in an intermediate position in the national ranking led by Campania, with an average contribution of 630.92 euros; in Friuli Venezia Giulia, however, the lowest value was recorded, equal to 434.75 euros.

On our island, as in every other region, the Rdc was canceled starting from 1 August 2023. The notices, sent in July by the INPS, formalized the stop to the social measure and simultaneously announced the payment of the seventh and final installment. Fragile families, i.e. those with minors, disabled people or those over 60 in poverty, were excluded from the provision. In these cases, the RDC will continue to be paid until 31 December and will then be replaced by the ADI, the Inclusion Allowance.

On the island, 2023 was not the year of greatest demand for the Rdc. The peak was reached in 2021 with 65,756 beneficiary families , equal to 128,958 people. Average amount: 515.06 euros. In 2022, however, 63,496 residents of Sardinia received at least one month's salary for an audience of 120,968 citizens. Average amount: 513.45 euros. In 2020, however, the families receiving the RDC reached 60,581, for a total of 124,270 people. Average amount: 501.53 euros. In 2019, the first year of activation, they were
46,946 families have obtained citizenship income. In total, 99,880 residents in Sardinia, who received an average subsidy of 470.81 euros.

The new Support for training and work has a lower amount, of 350 euros. Italians and foreigners can request it. As for EU citizens, there are no restrictions. People born outside the European Union, however, can only submit the application if they have resided in our country for at least five years and have a residence permit. There are no time constraints for refugees either. who are always allowed to request the SFL. The age limits apply to everyone: you must be between 18 and 59 years old. That is, belonging to the "employable" age group . Again: the real estate assets cannot exceed 150 thousand euros. It is not permitted to have a vehicle with a cylinder capacity exceeding 1,600, a threshold which drops to 250 for motorbikes. Ceilings also on the ISEE: 6 thousand euros for a single member, 8 thousand for two and 10 thousand for more than three, with an increase of one thousand euros for each child (from the third onwards). You cannot even be unemployed for less than a year in the event of voluntary resignation.

The application is submitted electronically following two different routes. Or you enter the portal www.inps.it and look for the dedicated screen; or you type "Job training support" on any search engine and you arrive on the same page. From panels A1 to panel E, personal data and the method with which you wish to receive the state allowance are requested. The options are the
bank transfer or postal passbook. Once this compilation is completed, you enter the Siisl platform, where the actual request for training and employment support begins.

To proceed, two preparatory actions are necessary: having prepared your curriculum vitae and having contacted, by personally going to the offices, at least three temporary agencies , whose names - with address and telephone number - must be indicated in order to sign the so-called Pad. It is the Action Pact digital and allows them to be included in professional training databases. During the activation phase of the Pad, each potential beneficiary of the SFL chooses the type of path they want to undertake and will participate in the courses based on this. The theoretical and practical activities are functional to entering the world of work.

The 350 euros of state contribution are paid only when training begins . This is a step which must be preceded by the signing of another agreement, called the Personalized Service Agreement: it is signed in the Employment Center from which you are summoned. Given the complexity of the Siisl digital system, those who are not familiar with PCs and the Internet are not able to submit the application independently but must ask for help.

As for the inclusion allowance, participation in any activity is not required: the ADI is a support measure when there are conditions of objective economic and social difficulty that prevent the carrying out of any activity. The application is always made on the INPS portal. The citizenship requirements required are identical to those required for the SFL. As for the economic criteria, you cannot have an ISEE higher than 9,360 euros.
