Rights of the unemployed

Rights of the unemployed

If you are an unemployed, you have the right to:

  • receive assistance in obtaining suitable employment;
  • take advantage of the work exchange;
  • take advantage of the vocational counselling and participate in activities of the work club;
  • apply for training courses organised by the district labour office;
  • apply for an individual training course in order to improve or gain professional qualifications;
  • postpone the obligatory visit to a maximum of 10 calendar days per year through the so-called “lack of readiness”;
  • apply for  various kinds of support, such as trial periods, vouchers, vocational training for adults, one-off subsidy, start-up business loans and socially useful works;
  • apply for public works, interventions works;
  • apply for a training course loan or financing the cost of postgraduate studies;
  • apply for reimbursement of the costs of travel, accommodation and childcare of a child aged up to seven years old or dependent person in the cases specified in the Act;
  • free health insurance.

Remember

Ask about your right at your labour office, since the labour office grants you this kind of support or not depends on type of profile established for you during an interview when a client advisor analyses your situation and chances on the labour market and on the basis of the individual action plan tailored to your needs.
