ANNEX

Conditions for reimbursement of the Union contribution to programmes in accordance with Articles 94(4) and 95(4) of Regulation (EU) 2021/1060 on the basis of unit costs and financing not linked to costs for operations in the areas of formal education, training, employment-related counselling services, in-home care services and community-based day care services and support services for victims of domestic violence and homeless persons

The defined amounts and conditions shall not apply to programmes that have established their own, specific simplified-cost-option or financing-not-linked-to-cost schemes in accordance with Articles 94(3) and 95(2) of Regulation (EU) 2021/1060, for the relevant types of operations.

1.   OPERATIONS CONCERNING FORMAL EDUCATION WHICH MAY BE COVERED BY REIMBURSEMENT ON THE BASIS OF UNIT COSTS

1.1.   Types of operations

Formal education operations (from early childhood education to tertiary level including formal vocational education).

1.2.   Definition of the indicator triggering payment of the unit costs

Indicator name: Participant in an academic year of formal education

Measurement unit for the indicator: Number of participants with verified enrolment status during an academic year of formal education, differentiated by ISCED classification. Verified enrolment means that proof of the enrolment of the student in the formal education or training course is to be verified by national authorities on two or three occasions during the academic year, in accordance with each Member State’s normal practices and procedures.

International Standard Classification of Education: http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php/International_Standard_Classification_of_Education_(ISCED)

1.3.   Amounts (in EUR)

The amounts set in Tables 1a and 1b below cover all eligible costs directly related to the provision of core goods and services of formal education, including tuition fees, registration, exam fees, school trips, canteen costs.

Other categories of costs that could be necessary for the implementation of the operation, such as participant allowances, transport, accommodation or other types of support provided to participants are not covered by the unit cost and may thus constitute additional eligible costs in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2021/1060, funds-specific regulations and national eligibility rules.

If the managing authority or intermediate body in charge of implementing a programme applies these unit costs to establish the Union contribution to the programme for one operation that falls under this Regulation, these amounts shall constitute the amount that the Commission reimburses for any formal education operation under the same programme for the same type of beneficiary. Other programmes managed by different intermediate bodies or managing authorities are not concerned by this restriction.

The amounts are for full-time participation in an academic year.

In case of part-time participation, the amount shall be established on the basis of a pro rata reflecting the participation of the student. In case the course lasts less than one academic year, the amount shall be established on the basis of a pro rata reflecting the duration of the course.

For courses lasting at least one full academic year, these amounts may be reimbursed to the Member State on the following basis: 50 % for the first proof of enrolment during the academic year (normally at the beginning of the academic year, in accordance with national rules and practices), 30 % for the second proof of enrolment and 20 % for the third and final proof of enrolment. For those Member States whose national systems provide for this information to be collected only twice per year, or for courses lasting less than one full academic year, it will be 50 % for the first proof of enrolment and 50 % for the second and final proof of enrolment.

Courses may take place on site, online or in a hybrid format, but must always be delivered with both trainer and participants present at the same time.

To account for additional efforts required for and to address the specific needs of third-country nationals or refugees (1), including people having fled the Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine, specific values are set out in Table 1b for operations addressing this target group. Those values may be used instead of the corresponding values set out in Table 1a. They are not cumulative values and cannot be used in combination with Table 1a.

The same conditions for reimbursement apply for values set in Tables 1a and 1b. The only difference being the target group, specific eligibility criteria and audit trail should be set for participants in line with specific national definitions and practices.

1.4.   Adjustment method

The unit costs and values in Table 1a may be automatically adjusted on an annual basis by applying the Labour Cost Index for education (2). Basis index setting the values in Table 1a is the LCIEducation2021 (Labour Cost index for 2021). The adjusted values with index of year N will apply for all operations concerned as of Jan 1 of the year N+1

The adjustment shall be based on the following formula:

AdjustedSCO = BaseSCO x LCIEducation latest

The amounts set in Table 1b may be automatically adjusted by multiplying the adjusted unit costs in Table 1a by factor 1,10.

Table 1a

Amounts per participant in formal education (in EUR)

n/a indicates that no data is available for that particular Member State and the indicated education level.

Reference year of data collection is 2021 apart from fields for FR and NL where the reference year is 2019.

2.   OPERATIONS CONCERNING TRAINING OF REGISTERED UNEMPLOYED, JOB-SEEKERS OR INACTIVE PEOPLE

2.1.   Types of operations

Any operations concerning training of registered unemployed, jobseekers or inactive people. The training courses may be primarily either institutional or workplace-based, but must be delivered at least partly in an institutional setting.

In the case of institutional training, courses may take place on site, online or in a hybrid format, but must always be delivered with both trainer and participants present at the same time. Workplace-based training courses must always take place on site.

2.2.   Definition of the indicator triggering payment of the unit costs

Indicator name: Participants who have successfully completed a training course.

Measurement unit for the indicator: Number of participants who have successfully completed a training course.

A training course shall be considered as ‘successfully completed’ when there is a document demonstrating completion in accordance with national rules or practices. For example, this could be a certificate issued by the training provider or an equivalent document which is acceptable under national rules or practices.

The condition of successfully completing a training course shall not be regarded as being met where a participant only successfully completes some of the modules within a training course.

2.3.   Amounts (in EUR)

The amounts set in Tables 2a and 2b below cover all eligible costs directly related to the provision of training courses.

Other categories of costs that could be necessary for the implementation of the operation, such as participant allowances, transport, accommodation or other types of support provided to participants are not covered by the unit cost and may thus constitute additional eligible costs in accordance with the Regulation (EU) 2021/1060, funds specific regulations and national eligibility rules.

If the managing authority or intermediate body in charge of implementing a programme applies these unit costs to establish the Union contribution to the programme for one operation that falls under this Regulation, these amounts shall constitute the amount that the Commission reimburses for any operation concerning training of registered unemployed, job-seekers or inactive people under the same programme managed by the same body for the same type of beneficiary. Other programmes managed by different intermediate bodies or managing authorities are not concerned by this restriction.

To account for additional efforts required for and to address the specific needs of third-country nationals or refugees (3), including people having fled the Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine, specific values are set out in Table 2b for operations addressing this target group. Those values may be used instead of the corresponding values set out in Table 2a. They are not cumulative values and cannot be used in combination with Table 2a.

The same conditions for reimbursement apply for values set in both Tables 2a and 2b. The only difference being the target group, specific eligibility criteria and audit trail should be set for participants in line with specific national definitions, rules and practices.

For those Member States listed in Table 5:

| — | the amounts mentioned in Tables 2a and 2b shall be multiplied by the index for the relevant regional Programme; |
| --- | --- |

—

the amounts mentioned in Tables 2a and 2b shall be multiplied by the index for the relevant regional Programme;

| — | where programmes cover more than one region, the amount to be reimbursed shall be in accordance with the region in which the operation or project is implemented. |
| --- | --- |

—

where programmes cover more than one region, the amount to be reimbursed shall be in accordance with the region in which the operation or project is implemented.

2.4.   Adjustment method

This unit cost in Table 2a may be automatically adjusted on an annual basis by applying the Labour Cost Index for education (4). The base index used for setting the values in Table 2a is the LCIEducation2021 (Labour Cost index for 2021). The adjusted values with index of year N will apply for all operations concerned as of Jan 1 of the year N+1

The adjustment shall be based on the following formula: AdjustedSCO = BaseSCO x LCIEducation latest

The unit costs set in Table 2b may be automatically adjusted by multiplying the adjusted unit costs in Table 2a by factor 1,10.

Table 2a

Amounts for training of registered unemployed, jobseekers or inactive people (in EUR)

Reference year is 2021 apart from fields marked with a *– reference year is 2019 for these fields.

Time spent on the training courses refers to paid working time (in hours) spent on training courses; this only covers the actual training time, and only the time spent during paid working time.

Where the salary of the employee while on a training course is not an eligible cost, only unit cost 1) shall be reimbursed. Where the salary of the employee while on training is considered as an eligible cost, the combined amount from unit costs 1) and 2) may be reimbursed.

As defined in the CPR specific eligibility criteria and audit trail requirements should be set in line with specific national definitions, rules and practices.

If the managing authority or intermediate body in charge of implementing a programme applies these unit costs to establish the Union contribution to the programme for one operation that falls under this Regulation, these amounts shall constitute the amount that the Commission reimburses for any operation concerning the provision of training to employed persons under the same programme managed by the same body for the same type of beneficiary. Other programmes managed by different intermediate bodies or Managing Authorities are not concerned by this restriction.

To account for additional efforts required for and to address the specific needs of third-country nationals or refugees (5), including people having fled the Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine, specific values are set out in Table 3b for operations addressing this target group. These values may be used instead of the corresponding values set in Table 3a. They are not cumulative values and cannot be used in combination with Table 3a.

The same conditions for reimbursement apply for values set in both Tables 3a and 3b. The only difference being the target group, specific eligibility criteria and audit trail should be set for participants in line with specific national definitions and practices.

For those Member States listed in Table 5:

| — | the amounts set in Tables 3a and 3b shall be multiplied by the index for the relevant Regional Programme; |
| --- | --- |

—

the amounts set in Tables 3a and 3b shall be multiplied by the index for the relevant Regional Programme;

| — | where programmes cover more than one region, the amount to be reimbursed shall be in accordance with the region in which the operation or project is implemented. |
| --- | --- |

—

where programmes cover more than one region, the amount to be reimbursed shall be in accordance with the region in which the operation or project is implemented.

3.4.   Adjustment method

The unit cost set in Table 3a may be automatically adjusted on an annual basis by applying the Labour Cost Index for education (6) and the Labour Cost Index for Administrative support. Basis index used for setting the values in Tables 3a was the LCIEducation2021 and the LCIAdminSupport2021 - (Labour Cost index for 2021). The adjusted values with index of year N will apply for all operations concerned as of Jan 1 of the year N+1.

| 1) | The adjustment of the hourly rate for training of employed persons shall be based on the following formula:
  AdjustedSCO = BaseSCO x LCIEducation latest |
| --- | --- |

1)

The adjustment of the hourly rate for training of employed persons shall be based on the following formula:

AdjustedSCO = BaseSCO x LCIEducation latest

| 2) | The adjustment of the hourly rate for salary of an employee while on training shall be based on the following formula:
  AdjustedSCO = BaseSCO x LCIAdminSupport latest |
| --- | --- |

2)

The adjustment of the hourly rate for salary of an employee while on training shall be based on the following formula:

AdjustedSCO = BaseSCO x LCIAdminSupport latest

The unit costs set in Table 3b may be automatically adjusted by multiplying the adjusted unit costs in Table 3a by factor 1,10.

4.   OPERATIONS CONCERNING THE PROVISION OF EMPLOYMENT-RELATED COUNSELLING SERVICES

4.1.   Types of operations

Any operations concerning the provision of employment-related counselling services to registered unemployed, jobseekers or inactive people. Employment-related counselling services can be provided in a one-on-one situation or as part of a group. They include all services and activities undertaken by the public employment service (PES) and services provided by other public agencies or any other bodies contracted under public finance, which facilitate the integration of unemployed persons and other jobseekers in the labour market, or which assist employers in recruiting and selecting staff.

4.2.   Definition of the indicators triggering payment of the unit costs

Indicator name:

| 1) | Hourly rate for provision of counselling services. |
| --- | --- |

1)

Hourly rate for provision of counselling services.

| 2) | Monthly rate for provision of counselling services. |
| --- | --- |

2)

Monthly rate for provision of counselling services.

| 3) | Annual rate for provision of counselling services. |
| --- | --- |

3)

Annual rate for provision of counselling services.

Measurement unit for the indicator:

| — | Number of hours of counselling services provided to registered unemployed, jobseekers or inactive people. |
| --- | --- |

—

Number of hours of counselling services provided to registered unemployed, jobseekers or inactive people.

| — | Number of months of counselling services provided to registered unemployed, jobseekers or inactive people. |
| --- | --- |

—

| — | Number of years of counselling services provided to registered unemployed, jobseekers or inactive people. |
| --- | --- |

—

Number of years of counselling services provided to registered unemployed, jobseekers or inactive people.

The number of hours needs to be demonstrated by a verifiable time management system. The number of months and or years need to be demonstrated in accordance with the usual national administrative practices for this type of time registration or justification.

The unit cost covers the provision of counselling services during 1 hour/month/year regardless of the number of persons receiving the service.

When applying the monthly or yearly rate in case of part-time provision, the amount shall be established on a pro rata basis of the monthly or yearly rate.

Specific eligibility criteria and audit trail should be set in line with specific national definitions, rules and practices.

4.3.   Amounts (in EUR)

The amounts set in Tables 4a and 4b cover all eligible costs of the operation (i.e. direct staff costs + flat rate of 40 % to cover all other eligible costs), except for allowances paid to participants, which may thus constitute additional eligible costs in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2021/1060, Fund-specific Regulations and national eligibility rules.

If the managing authority or intermediate body in charge of implementing a programme applies these unit costs to establish the Union contribution to the programme for one operation that falls under this Regulation, these amounts shall constitute the amount that the Commission reimburses for any operation concerning the provision of employment-related counselling services under the same programme managed by the same body for the same type of beneficiary. Other programmes managed by different intermediate bodies or managing authorities are not concerned by this restriction.

To account for additional efforts required for and to address the specific needs of third-country nationals or refugees (7), including people having fled the Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine, specific values are set out in Table 4b for operations addressing this target group. These values may be used instead of the corresponding values set in Table 4a. They are not cumulative values and cannot be used in combination with Table 4a.

The same conditions for reimbursement apply for values set in both Tables 4a and 4b. The only difference being the target group, specific eligibility criteria and audit trail should be set for participants in line with specific national definitions and practices.

For those Member States listed in Table 5:

| — | the amounts mentioned in Tables 4a and 4b shall be multiplied by the index for the relevant regional Programme; |
| --- | --- |

—

the amounts mentioned in Tables 4a and 4b shall be multiplied by the index for the relevant regional Programme;

| — | where programmes cover more than one region, the amount to be reimbursed shall be in accordance with the region in which the operation or project is implemented. |
| --- | --- |

—

where programmes cover more than one region, the amount to be reimbursed shall be in accordance with the region in which the operation or project is implemented.

4.4.   Adjustment method

This unit cost may be automatically adjusted on an annual basis by applying the Labour Cost Index for Public Administration. Basis index used for setting the values in Tables 4a and 4b is the LCIPublic Administration 2021 - (Labour Cost index for 2021). The adjusted values with index of year N will apply for all operations concerned as of Jan 1 of the year N+1

| — | Hourly rate: Adjusted SCO = Base SCO x LCIPublic administration year N |
| --- | --- |

—

Hourly rate: Adjusted SCO = Base SCO x LCIPublic administration year N

LC – Labour cost index by NACE Rev. 2 activity - nominal value, annual data [lc_lci_r2_a] NACE Rev. 2 (activity = O. Public administration and defence; compulsory social security)

| — | Monthly rate: Adjusted SCO = Adjusted SCOHourly rate x Ti x 4,348121417 |
| --- | --- |

—

Monthly rate: Adjusted SCO = Adjusted SCOHourly rate x Ti x 4,348121417

Ti - average hours worked per week of full-time employment in country concerned; 4,348121417 – number of work weeks per month;

| — | Yearly rate: Adjusted SCO = Adjusted SCOMonthly rate x 52,177457
  52,177457 – number of weeks per year; |
| --- | --- |

—

Yearly rate: Adjusted SCO = Adjusted SCOMonthly rate x 52,177457

52,177457 – number of weeks per year;

The unit costs set in Table 4b may be automatically adjusted by multiplying the adjusted unit costs in Table 4a by factor 1,10.

6.3.   Amounts (in EUR)

The amounts set in Tables 6 and Table 7 below cover all eligible costs of the operation (8).

When devising a single operation for the provision of in-home care services and community-based day care services supported by ESF+, Member States are not allowed to pick and choose from the list of eligible activities set out under points 6.1.1 and 6.1.2. Member States are required to provide the full set of standard activities set under point 6.1.2 for the community-based day care service operations to be eligible for reimbursement, or in the case of in-home care at least the activities referred to in points (a), (b) and (c) of point 6.1.1 cumulatively.

Documents required to justify that relevant activities took place, and that all claimed outputs were realised, are those required in accordance with each Member State’s normal practices and procedures. Managing authorities need to clearly define the audit trail.

Examples of justification documents

| | For in-home care services:






  — | Carer contract, records of self-reporting by carers; carers assessment by a general practitioner of a person provided with in-home care services or by local social services and/or equivalent documentation |

If the managing authority or intermediate body in charge of implementing a programme applies these unit costs to establish the Union contribution to the programme for one operation that falls under this Regulation, these amounts shall constitute the amount that the Commission reimburses for any operation concerning the provision of in-home care services and community-based day care services under the same programme for the same type of beneficiary. Other programmes managed by different intermediate bodies or managing authorities are not concerned by this restriction.

6.4.   Adjustment method

Unit cost values for both types of care services can be adjusted annually on the basis of Eurostat’s Labour Cost Index (LCI) for the economic activity ‘human health and social work services’. The adjusted values with index of year N will apply for all operations concerned as of Jan 1 of the year N+1

The formula for adjustment: Unit cost value of a Member State X * LCI index of Member State X
