työperusteisten

Työperusteiset are a type of Finnish social security system that provides financial support to individuals who are unable to work due to illness, injury, or other reasons. The system is based on the principle of solidarity, where those who are able to work contribute to a fund that supports those who are unable to work. The contributions are made through mandatory employer and employee social security taxes, which are used to finance the benefits provided by the system.

The main types of työperusteiset benefits include:

1. Unemployment benefits: These are paid to individuals who have lost their jobs and are actively seeking new employment. The duration and amount of the benefits depend on the individual's age, length of unemployment, and other factors.

2. Sickness benefits: These are paid to individuals who are unable to work due to illness or injury. The duration and amount of the benefits depend on the severity of the illness or injury, as well as the individual's age and other factors.

3. Maternity and paternity benefits: These are paid to individuals who are taking time off work to care for a newborn child. The duration and amount of the benefits depend on the individual's age, length of maternity leave, and other factors.

4. Disability benefits: These are paid to individuals who are permanently or temporarily unable to work due to a disability. The duration and amount of the benefits depend on the severity of the disability, as well as the individual's age and other factors.

The työperusteiset system is administered by the Finnish Social Insurance Institution (Kela), which is responsible for collecting contributions, determining eligibility for benefits, and paying out benefits. The system is designed to provide a safety net for individuals who are unable to work, while also promoting economic stability and growth.
