Benefits as a member

As a member, you receive unemployment benefits if you lose your job, which gives you financial security. An unemployment period of just three months will see you bringing home the equivalent of ten years’ worth of membership fees.

Many of our members are seeking that little bit extra financial security, which is why we provide them with an attractive salary insurance option. If you become unemployed, you can receive up to 90 percent of your previous salary.

If you are studying and less than 30 years old, you can become a member for free. Older than 30? You can become a member for free if you are part of the voluntary early retirement scheme.
