Congratulate yourself on your membership!
Being a member of an unemployment fund is smart.
With our income protection, you have the freedom to pursue your dreams at the twists and turns of the job market and take bold steps in your career. With our security, unemployment, lay-offs or part-time work are opportunities to get ahead.
Membership is particularly useful for you now, as you can also take advantage of our new job search services.
When should you end your membership?
There are really only two situations in which it makes sense for you to end your membership with us.
- When you retire and no longer need our services.
- If you start working as a full-time entrepreneur, you can keep your membership as a new entrepreneur for up to 18 months.
There are really no other situations in which you should terminate your membership. If you start studying, take parental leave or do your military service, you should keep your membership in the unemployment fund. This way, you will keep the working condition you have already accumulated and you will have a better chance of receiving income support if unemployment should surprise you when you return to work.
