Challenge

The way we work has changed. Over 650,000 German companies filed an initial application for support through the Kurzarbeitergeld program, putting hundreds of thousands of workers on ‘short work’ while COVID-19 restrictions are in place. An intelligent Digital Workforce can help your employees navigate the challenges they are facing.

Applying for the Kurzarbeitergeld support will have an impact on the Payroll and HR teams. Each month, the teams must pull detailed employee lists and manually fill out a KUG 108 form for every employee affected by ‘short work’ to participate in the program. Since the process is new and high touch, it will likely take up a lot of the team’s time.
