How to calculate the unemployment benefit given by the government to partially support the employee who leaves the job deserving to receive unemployment benefits, in order to meet his basic needs for a certain period of time until he enters a new job? All the curious details are in our news …
HOW TO CALCULATE UNEMPLOYMENT PAY?
For the amount of unemployment benefits, the earnings of the insured employee for the last 4 months are taken into consideration. 40% of the average daily earnings calculated over the 4-month gross earnings are calculated as unemployment benefits. How many days will be paid, after multiplying that day, it is deposited into the employee’s account on a monthly basis. In other words, the employee may receive unemployment benefits up to 40% of his average wage.
The limit of unemployment benefit is set at the minimum wage. The daily unemployment allowance that a person can receive can be up to 80% of the daily gross minimum wage. If 40% of the average daily earnings for high-wage workers exceeds 80% of the daily minimum wage, the daily unemployment allowance that the person will receive will be 80% of the minimum wage. Only stamp duty is deducted from unemployment benefits.
40% of the average of earnings based on premium for the last 4 months is collected and only stamp tax is deducted (0.00759%) and the remaining amount is paid. The point to be considered in this case is that even if your wages are high, 40% of unemployment insurance is not taken directly, unemployment insurance cannot exceed 80% of the minimum wage. Now, let’s look at how much the salary a worker who works with a minimum wage in 2019 will be unemployed. (Gross salary will be calculated over 2.558,40 TL.)
Total of Last 4 Months Prime Principal Earnings: + 2558.40 2558.40 2558.40 + 10233.60 + 2558.40 =
Average Monthly Earnings: 10233.60 / 4 = 2558.40
40% of Average Earnings: (2,558,40) x (40%) = 1,023,36
Stamp Tax Deduction: (1.023,36) x (0.00759) = 7.7673024
The amount of unemployed pension entitled: (1.023,36) – (7,7673024) = 1.015,59 TL.
Let’s assume that this time the employee received a gross salary of 4,000 TL. Accordingly, the amount of unemployment benefits will be calculated as follows:
Total of Last 4 Months Prime Principal Earnings: 4.000 + 4.000 + 4.000 + 4.000 = 16.000 TL
Average Monthly Earnings: 16 000/4 = 4000
40% of Average Earnings: (4,000) x (40%) = 1,600
Stamp Tax Deduction: (1,600) x (0,00759) = 12,144
The amount of unemployed pension entitled: (1.600) – (12.143) = 1.587.85 TL.
