If the persons referred to in Paragraph 1 are not in employment, they shall be compensated for the loss of earnings incurred by them at the time of the prescribed performance of the fire service or the provision of mandatory personal assistance. However, no compensation shall be granted if the loss of earnings does not cause them, due to their property and earnings, particularly significant material damage.
