C. MINIMUM INCLUSION INCOME

The minimum inclusion income consists of one or more of the following categories of financial aid:

Depending on the needs of the family/single person, the minimum inclusion income is accompanied by other complementary social assistance measures, granted in cash and/or in-kind, as follows:
incentives – special measures to stimulate participation in the labor market, granted in cash or as deductions applied to the person's income;
contributory facilities – ensuring inclusion in the social health insurance system, without paying the health insurance contribution;

346 lei, for a single person with no income;
