You can request a certificate of your partial work ability if you are about to be employed by a large employer
- News
If you have a disability or illness affecting your ability to work, you can request a certificate for a jobseeker with partial work ability from the employment authority.
If you have an injury or illness diagnosed by a physician that affects your employment and you are about to be employed by a large employer, you can ask the employment authority for a certificate stating that you have been registered as a jobseeker with partial work ability in the employment services customer information system. A large employer is an employer who has insurance from an employment pension company and whose annual salary exceeds the large employer’s salary limit.
Certificate for a jobseeker with partial work ability reduces the threshold for a large employer to hire an employee with partial work ability and promotes your employment. When you have the certificate, your employer’s employment pension contribution category will not change if you have to retire on a disability pension during the first five years of your employment relationship.
