Supplemental Unemployment Insurance
An economic safety net is indispensable if you are unlucky and get laid off.
When you are a member of an A-kasse, you are entitled to receive unemployment benefits. If you choose to supplement the unemployment benefit from your a-kasse with our Supplemental Unemployment Insurance, the salary insurance means you can preserve up to 90% of your salary. Thus, with solid financial peace of mind, you can concentrate on your career.
Maintain 90 % of your salary
If you are a member of IDA, your spouse/cohabiting partner can also buy the insurance, so you are both financially secured.
Outplacement process
You can draft an outplacement process for your further career in collaboration with IDA.
