A reemployment benefit is an allowance payable to an unemployed person registered in a Poviat Labour Office and eligible to receive a benefit, who commenced employment or other paid work spontaneously or as a result of being referred to it by the said Office.
You will be able to receive the reemployment benefit if:
- You are unemployed and eligible to receive a benefit and you commence employment or other paid work spontaneously,
- You commence part-time employment as a result of being referred by the Poviat Labour Office and receive remuneration lower than the minimum one.
You will receive the reemployment benefit for:
- a half of the period when you would still be eligible to receive the benefit amounting to 50% of the unemployment benefit, if you are unemployed, you are eligible to receive a benefit and you commenced employment or other paid work spontaneously;
- the whole period when you would still be eligible to receive the benefit, being a difference between the minimum remuneration for work and the received remuneration, no higher, however, than 50% of the unemployment benefit, if you commenced employment as a result of being referred to by the Poviat Labour Office.
What to do to get the reemployment benefit?
If you would like to apply for the reemployment benefit, you should submit an application to the Labour Office where you are registered as an unemployed person, together with a document confirming you commence employment or other paid work.
