6. I hold two jobs concurrently, am I required to be enrolled in employment insurance through both employers?
- Employers must apply for their employees’ enrollment in labor insurance, employment insurance, and occupational accident insurance in accordance with regulations.
Workers (including part-time workers) engaged in two or more jobs who are employed by employers mandated to act as insured units for labor insurance, employment insurance, and occupational accident insurance (e.g., a company with five or more employees), the company must enroll them in labor insurance, employment insurance, and occupational accident insurance, respectively.
- Insured persons may choose to enroll in employment insurance through one of their employers.
If the insured person is employed by two employers or more, he/she may choose to enroll in employment insurance through one employer only in accordance with Article 5, Paragraph 3 of the Employment Insurance Act. Insured persons who wish to enroll in employment insurance through one employer only are required submit a written explanatory letter to the Bureau. The Bureau will verify if the employed worker is indeed under duplicate enrollment. Upon factual confirmation, employment insurance premiums will be collected only from the employer through which the insured person is enrolled in employment insurance.
