  • When you register as an unemployed jobseeker, we assess your situation based on the information you have provided. The services you need and the activities you have agreed on will be compiled into a plan, which will outline the goals for you job search, the ways in which you will personally promote finding employment, the services you will need and how you will be in contact with the TE Office in the future. You must follow the agreed plan to avoid losing your right to unemployment benefits.

    If the employment plan includes services promoting employment (job search training and career coaching, work or education try-out excluding labour market training, independent study supported by an unemployment benefit, rehabilitative work activities, independent study under the Act on the Promotion of Immigration Integration), the party paying the unemployment benefit may pay an increased amount of benefits for the duration of the service.
