Can I work part-time or take temporary jobs?

If you receive money from your Supplemental Unemployment Insurance, please know the special part-time and temporary work rules.

Can I take temporary work and part-time work?
You can take on temporary work for a maximum of 12 months and part-time work up to 29.6 hours per week. Before starting your temporary job, it is vital to inform Topdanmark (our insurance partner) and discuss whether two periods of unemployment will be considered one or two.

Rules governing part-time work 

If you work part-time for 29.6 hours or less per week, you can still receive payments from your Supplemental Unemployment Insurance. However, the amount you receive has a limit of up to a maximum of 90% of your salary before you become unemployed. To qualify for wage protection payments, you must meet the following requirements: 
  • You must have accepted the part-time job offer after being dismissed.
  • Your new employer must be different from your previous one.
  • You must be available for a full-time job in the labour market.
  • You must be actively searching for a job.
