Employer-paid benefits

Employer-paid benefits (G-dage)

If you have been given notice, you are eligible for unemployment benefits from your first day of unemployment. Your employer is required to pay for the first two days of unemployment. This is known as G-days.

Your employer must also pay G-days if you are dismissed from work if you have been employed in a temporary position or your employment has a fixed end date.

You must have worked at least 74 hours in the last four weeks to be eligible for G-days.
