Calculation of the expected unemployment benefit rate for graduates

You can use the benefit calculator below to get an indication of your benefit rate and length.

In order to be able to calculate your unemployment benefit rate based on education and work, we need information about your current and/or expected gross salary per month

Enter gross salary

  1. Enter what you have been reported in wages before tax by your employer for the best 12 months within the last 24 months before you register as unemployed.

  2. If you have not had a job for 12 months within the last 24 months, you must enter all the months in which you have had wages reported. Even if the income is very low for a month, it must be counted

  3. If you have several payslips reported in the same month, they all count towards your monthly salary.

  4. Only months in which you have been a member of an unemployment fund count.

  5. SU does NOT count this in your salary.

  6. You also have the option of entering future income until you graduate or if you know you have the prospect of some work afterwards. If you do not know your earnings for the coming months, you must make your best guess.

If you have income from self-employment, please contact us, as the calculation then becomes a little more complex.

Note. Calculation of unemployment benefit rate based on education and work, and the salary information you have provided as gross salary, is only an indication of an expected unemployment benefit rate.
You can use the information to decide which unemployment benefit model is best for you.
The final benefit rate will be calculated when you send us your application for unemployment benefit
