The Bulgarian government has extended until the end of May the measures known as "60/40" and "80/20" payroll support for employers in the sectors affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. 

The "Keep me" measure to compensate employees of closed businesses is also being extended, providing an additional EUR 12,300 million from EU funds. 

Employees will receive compensation of 75% of their insurance income until the end of June 2021.
