Bundesagentur für Arbeit: Immer höhere Überschüsse?

Author

Listed:
  • Boss, Alfred

Abstract

Die Bundesagentur für Arbeit wird im Jahr 2017 einen Überschuss in Höhe von 6 Mrd. Euro erwirtschaften. Dieser Überschuss ist zu einem großen Teil struktureller Art, nicht konjunktur-bedingt. Der Beitragssatz sollte deshalb von 3 auf 2,5 Prozent gesenkt werden. So ließe sich der Anstieg der gesamten Belastung durch Sozialversicherungsbeiträge, zu dem es Anfang 2017 kam, rückgängig machen - mit positiven Folgen für die Beschäftigung.
