If a person is made redundant or terminates his
or her studies, and there is no job in sight,
he or she should immediately register as a job
applicant at the employment office. One condition
for entitlement to unemployment security is that
the unemployed has registered with the employment
office. Also the waiting period, i.e. the period
when unemployment benefit is not paid, normally
starts after registration with the employment
office.
Labour market support
Unemployed persons who have received daily unemployment
benefit for the maximum period may be granted
labour market support. Self-employed persons,
too, are under certain conditions entitled to
earnings-related unemployment allowance or basic
daily allowance and training allowance.
