Employment Insurance Procedures & Insured Person Management
Employment insurance is the foundation for unemployment benefits, childcare leave benefits, and more. Employees working 20+ hours/week with 31+ days' expected employment must be enrolled.
【Enrollment requirements】
Employment insurance enrollment is mandatory when both conditions are met:
· Scheduled weekly hours of 20 or more
· Expected employment of 31 days or more
Part-time and casual workers who meet the criteria must also enroll.
【Filing the enrollment form】
File the Employment Insurance Enrollment Form with Hello Work by the 10th of the month following hire.
Required info: name, date of birth, employment type, wages, scheduled weekly hours, etc.
【Preparing the separation notice】
Departing employees need the "rrishoku-hyo" (separation notice) to claim unemployment benefits.
· The company fills it out and stamps it, then submits to Hello Work
· Hello Work issues "Rrishoku-hyo 1 & 2" which are given to the departing employee
【Using e-Gov for electronic filing】
Employment insurance filings can be submitted electronically via the e-Gov portal.
A corporate digital certificate is required, but it enables paperless processing and saves time.
