What is the Housewives Bonus 2024?
The 2024 housewives bonus is a loan intended for training institutions to provide free courses to housewives and homemakers.
This is not direct economic support, but a training opportunity aimed at helping those outside the world of work to develop new skills, thus facilitating a possible reintegration into the labor market
.
This initiative, regulated by Law no. 126 of 13 October 2020, is financed with a fund of 3 million euros per year, also active in 2024. Institutions that receive funding can obtain between 100,000 and 300,000 euros to organize courses

Requirements to access the Housewives Bonus 2024
The housewives bonus is reserved for men and women who carry out domestic activities free of charge and not as employment.

This enrollment must be demonstrated through the certificate issued by INAIL and must be valid for the entire duration of the course

Housewives Bonus 2024: No ISEE Constraints

How to Claim the Housewives Bonus 2024
To take advantage of the 2024 housewives bonus, those interested must apply directly to the body that organizes the training courses.

How the 2024 Housewives Bonus works
The housewives bonus offers free access to training courses, which must meet certain characteristics:
- Duration: Maximum 12 months, with at least 150 participants per edition.
- Modalities: The courses are delivered online, divided into weekly modules.
- Contents: Each course includes at least 3 hours of synchronous activities (webinars) for each area covered, supported by tutoring activities and online communities.
- Assessment: A final evaluation of the skills acquired is planned, with at least 80% of the participants having to pass the assessment successfully.
Registration for Training Courses
To register for training courses, housewives and homemakers must contact the bodies that organize them directly. Due to delays in starting the bonus, the courses available in 2024 are those funded with 2022 funds. In addition, from March 2024, the first training courses dedicated to the improvement of digital skills will start, aimed at people between 18 and 67 years old who are dedicated to caring for the home and family
.
Differences between Housewives Bonus and Welfare Allowance
The housewives bonus is often confused with the social allowance, but they are two distinct measures:
- Housewives Bonus: It consists of free training courses for housewives and homemakers.
- Social Allowance: It is financial aid intended for people in disadvantaged economic conditions, often wrongly associated with the housewives bonus. It is obtained through enrollment in the Household Pension Fund and the payment of contributions for at least
5 years.
The 2024 housewives bonus offers a valuable opportunity to improve skills and facilitate the return to work for those who dedicate themselves exclusively to home care. To participate in courses, it is essential to be enrolled in INAIL insurance and to contact the training institutions that offer these
courses.
