Up to Twenty Hours of Community Work a Week for Under-25s Who Neither Study Nor Work: Portugal Sets the Operating Rules for Its Single Social Payment
Portaria n.º 394/2026/1 puts a ceiling on the community work the new single social payment can require: 15 hours a week, plus five more for 18 to 25 year olds out of work and study, and five more for everyone from the third renewal. Doing 20 hours earns a €13.43 voucher.
