On January 1, 2025, we will increase the fee by SEK 10. In October, a new law on unemployment insurance will come into effect, and your benefits will be calculated based on income instead of employment. Take the opportunity to refer a friend and enjoy a movie.

Did you know that you never need to switch unemployment funds?

Did you know that you can be a member of Akademikernas unemployment fund throughout your entire career? It’s your education that counts. When our members become unemployed, it’s rarely due to a lack of skills or education. Instead, economic downturns, technological changes, and reorganizations are often the cause. In such cases, it’s reassuring to have the unemployment fund as a buffer between jobs.

Refer a friend and go to the movies!

From November 7 to 17, take the opportunity to refer your academic friends to Akademikernas unemployment fund!

Log in to My Membership and send your personal code. Your friend must submit their application by November 17. Once the membership is approved, you’ll each receive a movie ticket.

New fee starting January 1, 2025

Our costs are primarily determined by the average daily allowance our unemployed members receive. As wages increase, the daily allowance also rises, which is why we need to raise the fee by SEK 10. The new fee will be SEK 140 per month.

New insurance in October 2025

On October 1, 2025, a new law on unemployment insurance will take effect. Eligibility will be based on income instead of hours worked.

Have a wonderful autumn!
