Your choice of insurance type affects your payout

When you join Min A-kasse, you must choose whether you want to be insured full-time or part-time. Your choice affects how much you can receive in unemployment benefits, how much you have to be available for work and how much you have to pay in membership fees.

If you become unemployed as a full-time insured, you must be available for full-time work up to 37 hours per week.

If you become unemployed as part-time insured, you must be available for part-time work up to 30 hours per week.

Full-time insurance or Part-time insurance

  • If you work more than 30 hours a week, you must be insured full-time. 
  • If you work 30 hours a week or lessyou can choose whether you want to be insured full-time or part-time.
  • If you are accepted as a recent graduate or conscript, you can also choose whether you want to be insured full-time or part-time.
Switch from part-time to full-time insurance

From part-time to full-time insurance

If you are registered as part-time insured and you work more than 30 hours per week on average over a three-month period, you must contact Min A-kasse so we can change your membership status to full-time insured.

Our work is linked to the E-income register, so if you don't do anything yourself, it happens automatically. This means that when you have worked more than 390 hours within three months (or more than 360 hours within 12 weeks if you are paid weekly), you will automatically be moved from being part-time insured to being full-time insured from the first of the month after it is registered with us.

Switch from full-time to part-time insurance

From full-time insurance to part-time insurance

You can switch from full-time to part-time insurance when you work 30 hours or less. However, if you are a full-time insured member and work part-time for a period of time, you do not need to change your insurance.

For example, it can be an advantage to be insured full-time if you become unemployed because you will be entitled to a higher unemployment benefit rate than if you are insured part-time.

If you are unemployed, you can change your status from full-time to part-time insured, but not the other way around. However, you should be aware that your entitlement to unemployment benefits will be reduced. This means you will receive both a lower rate, i.e. less payment, and the right to fewer unemployment benefit hours.
