How much unemployment insurance can a person receive if he/she has worked for 6 years with a base salary of 6 million VND in Vietnam?

I have worked for 6 years with a base salary of 6 million VND for the last 6 months. How many months of unemployment insurance will I get? How much money will I get each month?

Answer:

Pursuant to Article 50 of the Law on Employment in 2013 stipulating as follows:

The monthly unemployment allowance level equals 60% of the average monthly wage of 6 consecutive months before the worker becomes unemployed on which unemployment insurance premiums are based, but must not exceed 5 times the basic wage level, for workers receiving wages under the State-prescribed regime, or must not exceed 5 times the region-based minimum wage level under the Labor Code, for workers who pay unemployment insurance premiums under the wage regime decided by employers at the time of termination of the labor contract or working contract.

The duration of unemployment allowance receipt is based on the number of months of payment of unemployment insurance premiums. This duration is 3 months if the period of payment of unemployment insurance premiums is between full 12 months and full 36 months, which is added with 1 month for each additional period of payment of full 12 months, but must not exceed 12 months.

The time for unemployment allowance receipt is counted from the 16 th day after the date of submission of a complete dossier for receipt of unemployment allowance as specified in Clause 1, Article 46 of this Law.

In the case that you have 6 years of unemployment insurance contributions, you will be eligible to receive 6 months of unemployment benefits. Your base salary for the last 6 months of unemployment insurance contributions is 6 million VND. Therefore, your monthly unemployment benefit is:

60% * 6 million VND/month = 3.6 million VND/month.

Your total benefit for 6 months is 21.6 million VND.
