Abstract
EU citizens who have exercised free movement for work purposes and have become involuntarily unemployed in less than a year, either because of the end of a fixed-term contract or the unexpected termination of a contract, find themselves in a very precarious situation if they do not find another occupation or job within six months of termination. These jobseekers experience a downgrading of their right of residence, which can go as far as destitution. In such circumstances, actions aimed at reintegration into employment and financial support, such as non-contributory minimum income benefits, may be the way to promote the employability of these persons in the host Member State. However, the exception to the principle of equal treatment, which allows the State to reject their application for social assistance, undermines their right of residence to the extent that it may frustrate freedom of movement.
