I am a director or board member of a commercial company. Can I receive unemployment benefits when my employment relationship ends?

If you are a company director or a member of the board of a commercial company, you may be entitled to unemployment benefits provided the following conditions are met:

  • You also carried out work as an employee under an employment contract within the company.
  • Your role did not involve management or executive functions.
  • You do not hold effective control of the company.

You will not be entitled to unemployment benefits if:

  • You hold effective control of the company.
  • You performed management or executive functions within the company.

However, since this situation is treated as equivalent to employment under an employment contract (although without unemployment contributions for Social Security purposes), you may apply for unemployment benefits once the employment relationship ends. In this case, when calculating the period of insured employment, contributions made during the six years prior to the start of this last employment relationship, in managerial roles and as a director or board member, will be taken into account.
