Short Term Work Support

What Short Time Work Support Is

 

Short-time Work Support is a form of Jobseeker’s Benefit and is an income support payment if you have been temporarily placed on a shorter working week.

The payment is made in respect of your regular salary for the days that you are no longer working. For example, If your working week has been reduced from a 5 day work pattern to a 3 day work pattern, you can receive support for the other 2 days.

Short-time Work Support is paid for a maximum of 234 days. Your entitlement will depend on the number of social insurance contributions you have.

To qualify for Short-time Work Support, you must satisfy the two main PRSI Conditions for Jobseeker's Benefit

Employees must work 3 days per week or less to qualify, having previously been employed on a full time basis.
