Sepe

Sepe refers primarily to the Servicio Público de Empleo Estatal, the national public employment service of Spain. It is responsible for the design and administration of employment policies, managing unemployment benefits, and coordinating job-seeking services across the country in collaboration with regional authorities.

Core functions include processing unemployment benefit claims, administering subsidies for eligible unemployed persons, supplying labor-market information, providing vocational training and retraining programs, and offering guidance and job-search assistance to workers.

Operations are conducted through centralized offices and online platforms, enabling applicants to apply for benefits, consult benefit status, and access job offers and training opportunities.

The SEPE maintains an online presence at sepe.es, where users can find information about eligibility, required documents, and procedural steps for benefits, as well as access to job-search tools and guidance.

The term "Sepe" can also be found as a surname of Italian origin and, less commonly, in other contexts; but in contemporary usage, the acronym is most widely recognized as Spain's state employment service.
