Coordination with other benefits

Any other social security benefits you may have decreases the amount of Labour Market Subsidy due to you, with the exception of the following:

  • Child Benefit
  • General Housing Allowance or Housing Allowance for Pensioners
  • survivors' pensions
  • Care Allowance for Pensioners or disability allowance
  • disability indemnity under the Employment Accidents Act, Conscript's Allowance or annuity or supplemental annuity under the Military Injuries Act
  • or income support.

Any Child Home Care Allowance being paid to the recipient or his/her spouse is deducted from the Labour Market Subsidy. However, Child Home Care Allowance being paid to the spouse is not deducted if the spouse looks after a child personally and is not eligible for unemployment benefits on account of child care or the receipt of a maternity, paternity or parental allowance.
