Yrittajan Tyottomyyskassa is a Finnish unemployment fund for entrepreneurs, providing financial security in case of unemployment. Here are some key points about the organization: - Membership and Benefits: By joining Yrittajakassa, entrepreneurs can secure unemployment benefits, which include ansiosidonnainen tyottomyyspaivaraha (earnings-related unemployment allowance) if they meet specific conditions, such as being a member for a certain period and fulfilling the tyossaoloehto (employment requirement) [1][2]. The membership fee is relatively low, under 10 per month, and can be deducted from personal taxes [3]. - Eligibility for Benefits: To qualify for unemployment benefits, entrepreneurs must have been members of Yrittajakassa for a sufficient period and have met the employment requirement, which involves working as an entrepreneur with a minimum income level as defined by law [1]. The employment requirement is fulfilled if the entrepreneur has worked for at least 15 months within the four years preceding unemployment and has been insured through YEL, MYEL, or TyEL [1]. - Structure and Members: Yrittajakassa has over 30,000 members from various industries and business sizes, including full-time entrepreneurs and those in lighter entrepreneurial roles [4]. - Social Security for Entrepreneurs: Beyond unemployment benefits, entrepreneurs in Finland can also access other forms of social security, such as sairauspaivaraha (sickness allowance) and tyoterveyshuolto (occupational health care), though the latter is not mandatory for entrepreneurs themselves [2].
