UNEMPLOYMENT FUNDS

Facts about the unemployment funds in Denmark.

In order to receive unemployment benefit, employees must register in an approved Danish unemployment fund (a so-called a-kasse) that operates within your professional area of work.

There are 36 approved unemployment funds in Denmark, 34 of which are for wage earners and two for manager owners.

To receive unemployment benefit from the unemployment fund, you must have been a member of the unemployment fund for at least a year and worked for minimum 52 weeks full time during the last three years.
