By making use of borrowing and lending in this particular case of the COVID-19 outbreak for supporting Member States, this specific instrument could in particular be used by Member States as a second line of defence to finance short-time work schemes and similar measures, helping protect jobs and thus employees and self-employed against the risk of unemployment.
Taj instrument za zaduživanje i pozajmljivanje pruža potporu državama članicama u ovom konkretnom slučaju pandemije bolesti COVID-19 i države članice bi ga mogle iskoristiti kao drugu crtu obrane za financiranje programa skraćenog radnog vremena i sličnih mjera kojima se štite radna mjesta, a time i zaposlene i samozaposlene osobe od rizika nezaposlenosti.
