Union members and employees working under labor contracts at enterprises that paid union fees before April 1, 2023 will have their labor contracts terminated from April 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023 due to the enterprise cutting or reducing orders but are not eligible for unemployment benefits.

Support principles

Union members and employees whose working hours are reduced, who have stopped working, whose contracts are suspended, or who have taken unpaid leave are supported if they are working under a labor contract at the time of requesting support; and whose names are on the payroll (or payroll) at the enterprise before the time of starting to have their working hours reduced, who have stopped working, whose contracts are suspended, or who have taken unpaid leave and requesting support for at least 30 days or more.

Union members and employees whose contracts are terminated are entitled to benefits if their contracts are terminated without meeting the conditions for unemployment insurance; their names must be on the payroll (or payroll) at the enterprise before the date of termination of the contract requesting support for at least 90 days or more (at least 88 days or more if the contract is terminated from April 1, 2023).

Union members and workers who are eligible for support will receive support according to their category, but only once per person per policy. If eligible for all support policies, the difference between the support levels will not be deducted.

If it is impossible to verify the policy they have enjoyed, union members and workers must commit to whether they have or have not enjoyed the support policy.
