ARE YOU A MEMBER OF ANOTHER UNION AND WANT TO CHANGE YOUR MEMBERSHIP TO PROFESSIONALS OF BUSINESS AND TECHNOLOGY?
When you change your membership from another union to Professionals of Business and Technology membership, your already earned unemployment insurance work requirements will remain the same, provided there is no break of more than one month between leaving the previous union and joining Professionals of Business and Technology.

In addition to the application form, also fill out the authorization, which we will use to handle the union change on your behalf. If the membership fee was collected directly from your salary in the previous union, you must notify the payroll department of the termination of membership fee collection yourself.
Employee members of Tradenomi can join the Korkeasti koulutettujen työttömyyskassa KOKO and thus insure themselves against unemployment. Normally, you join the fund at the same time as you join the union. However, if you have not joined or been able to join the fund as a member when joining the union, it is also possible to do so later when you are employed. Our entrepreneur members can join the Yrittäjäkassa/Entrepreneur Fund as members.
You can typically join an unemployment fund and change funds only while you are employed - not during a period of unpaid leave, such as parental leave, full-time furlough, unemployment, or a long sick leave. Students can also join the fund, for example, when doing summer jobs or part-time jobs while in school.
