The Social Insurance Services of the Ministry of Labour and Social Insurance inform the public about the operation of the Subsidized Employee Permit Scheme for the year 2023, which will operate for the period from 16 July 2023 to 29 September 2023.

For the operation of the Scheme, hotels in the mountain resorts and Tilliria Tower will be used, which will offer accommodation and full board to the beneficiaries of the Scheme.

Subsidy will be provided to:

a) Employees and their spouses who are entitled to leave benefits from the Central Leave Fund for the leave year 2022 and have not participated in the Scheme themselves or their spouses in the last one year i.e. 2022.

b) Dependents of the above who have not attained the age of 18 years.

All employees, except those residing in the mountain resort areas, shall be eligible to participate in mountain resort hotels. Eligibility for hotels in the Tilliria Tower area is open to all employees, except those staying in coastal areas.

The grant will be provided for the period Sunday to Friday (five nights). The maximum amount of the grant is fifty euros (€50) per person per day. In no case may the grant exceed the actual costs of hotel accommodation.

The amount approved by the Central Licensing Fund for 2023 is €937,000.

The public can obtain application forms and other relevant forms from the Provincial Social Security Offices, Citizen Service Centres (CSCs) and on the website of the Social Security Services.

The Social Insurance Services have contracted with the TRAVELHOUSE travel agency for the implementation of the Plan, based on the Law on the Regulation of Public Procurement Procedures and Related Matters, as well as the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679.

The public may submit applications for participation in the Project from Wednesday 28 June 2023, duly completed and signed, to sidhf@travelhouse.com.cy or by fax to 22777474. For further information the public can call 22871100.

We remind you that there will be a strict first-come, first-served basis for participation in the Scheme and the selection of the preferred hotel. The Scheme is applicable until the relevant available amount is exhausted.
