Changes to unemployment benefits in September
The Parliament has approved legislative amendments that will take effect in September. The work requirement will double, the level of earnings-related allowance is set to be reduced in stages over time and and age-related exceptions will be eliminated.
Also the employment requirement for unemployment benefits will be changed to be determined based on income. These changes will affect everyone, but several of the changes will impact the amount of the daily allowance with a delay.
