Unemployment Fund Pro
Remember to report unpaid periods to the union

The membership of the unemployment fund is included in Pro’s membership fee. Membership in the unemployment fund continues when you pay a membership fee for every month you accrue income. The unemployment fund’s membership fee is automatically charged from the benefits paid by Unemployment Fund Pro.

Remember to report all unpaid periods to the union.  In Pro, you do not need to pay membership fees from a period you do not receive any pay (such as, for instance, study leave). The most convenient way to report this is to use our online form. You can also contact us by phone or email.  In case of unemployment, please remember to follow Unemployment Fund Pro's instructions for applying for earnings-related allowance.

Are you wondering if you’re entitled to earnings-related daily allowance?

How much earnings-related allowance will you be paid or when will it be on your account? Earnings-related daily allowance is paid if you have fulfilled the employment requirement during your membership and paid membership fees for when you were employed.

The employment requirement is fulfilled when you have been in paid employment for a sufficient period of time before the unemployment, during which the working hours exceeded the minimum set for each week.
