Social Insurance Termination at Resignation
Social insurance coverage ends the day after resignation. Termination forms must be filed and the health insurance card returned within the deadline.
【Termination procedures at resignation】
· Health insurance & pension termination form: within 5 days after resignation date (Japan Pension Service)
· Employment insurance termination form: by the 10th of the second month after resignation (Hello Work)
【Returning the health insurance card】
Collect the health insurance card at departure and return it to the insurer (health insurance association or Japan Health Insurance Association).
If using My Number card for insurance, card collection is not required, but de-registration of insurance usage is needed.
【Issuing the separation notice】
If the employee plans to claim unemployment benefits, you must provide the "rrishoku-hyo" (separation notice) — typically within two weeks.
【Post-resignation insurance options】
Departing employees choose one:
① Continued coverage (up to 2 years, roughly double the active-employee premium)
② Switch to National Health Insurance
③ Enroll in their next employer's insurance
【Managing offboarding in WorkVell】
Use the offboarding checklist to track equipment return, account deactivation, and document issuance.
