Unemployment can be a challenging period in anyone’s life. In Italy, the National Support for Unemployment (NASPI) program aims to provide financial assistance to individuals who have recently lost their jobs. To help you understand the amount granted under Italian unemployment benefits, we have compiled a list of frequently asked questions.

1. What is NASPI?

NASPI, or “Nuova Assicurazione Sociale per l’Impiego,” is an Italian unemployment benefit scheme introduced in 2015. It offers financial support to eligible individuals who have lost their jobs involuntarily without any fault of their own. The program aims to help them during the transitional period as they search for new employment opportunities.

2. How is the benefit amount determined?

The benefit amount under NASPI is calculated based on the individual’s average monthly income earned during the previous 4 years. Initially, the benefit is set at 75% of the average monthly income for the first two months. From the third month onwards, this amount decreases to 43% of the average monthly income.

3. What is the maximum benefit amount?

The maximum benefit amount that can be granted under NASPI is €1,200 per month. This means that even if your average monthly income is above this threshold, you will receive a fixed amount of €1,200 per month.

4. Is there a minimum benefit amount?

Yes, there is a minimum benefit amount under NASPI. If your average monthly income is below €500, you will receive 75% of your average monthly income for the first two months. From the third month onwards, the amount decreases to 43% of the average monthly income.

5. Are there any additional benefits?

Yes, NASPI recipients may also be eligible for additional benefits such as healthcare coverage and access to vocational training courses. These benefits aim to support individuals in their job search and help them enhance their skills during the unemployment period.

6. How long can I receive NASPI benefits?

The duration of NASPI benefits depends on the previous contributions made by the individual. Typically, the benefit period ranges from a minimum of 3 months to a maximum of 24 months. The specific duration is determined by the number of days the individual has contributed to the unemployment insurance system.

7. Can I work while receiving NASPI benefits?

Yes, recipients of NASPI benefits are allowed to work on a part-time basis while simultaneously receiving the benefits. However, the income earned from the part-time job should not exceed 150% of the individual’s monthly NASPI benefit amount.

NASPI can provide crucial support for individuals who find themselves unemployed in Italy. Understanding the amount granted under Italian unemployment benefits is important to plan your finances and make the most of the assistance provided. By knowing the maximum and minimum benefit amounts, as well as the additional benefits you may be entitled to, you can navigate this challenging period with more confidence.
