Become a member
Alfa-kassan is an unemployment insurance fund that welcomes everyone! As a member, you get financial security when you need it the most.
Why should I become a member?
If you join an unemployment fund, you can receive a higher benefit if you become unemployed. The benefit is based both on your previous income and how long you have been a member. This means that the longer you have been a member, the higher your benefit usually is. That is why it is a good idea to become a member!
Who can become a member?
Anyone who has ever worked in Sweden can join Alfa-kassan, even if you have only worked for one hour. It does not matter what kind of job you have, what type of employment you hold, or if you are self-employed. Everyone is welcome to us!

How much benefit can I get?
As a member, you can receive up to 80 percent of your previous income. We can cover income up to 34,000 SEK, which means you can receive a maximum of 27,200 SEK. If you are not a member, you can receive 50 percent of your previous income. Additionally, you pay an administration fee of 10 SEK for each benefit day.
How much does it cost to be a member?
It costs 170 SEK per month. However, you receive 25 percent of this cost back as a tax deduction in your yearly tax return.
How would you like to pay for your membership?

Change to another unemployment fund
If you change to another unemployment fund, you have the right to include your membership time from your previous fund, if the membership has been continuous. If you leave an unemployment fund and do not join another one immediately, your membership time will be reset. This can affect how much benefit you receive, since it is based both on your previous income and how long you have been a member. Generally, the longer you have been a member, the higher your benefit will be.
How do I avoid a gap in my membership?
First, contact your current unemployment insurance fund and tell them you want to leave. You can withdraw earliest on the last day of the month they receive your notification. Then apply for membership with the new unemployment fund the following month. The membership is always counted from the first day of the month you applied to join.
