A new maximum amount unemployment benefits for the unemployed receiving a company supplement (RCC) is applicable since 1 September 2017.
This increase of the maximum amount for the RCC unemployment benefit has an impact on the net amount of the company supplement since the deduction of 6.5% is calculated on the sum of the unemployment benefit and the company supplement.
The legal text was published in the Belgian Official Gazette of 13 September 2017 with retroactive effect from 01 September 2017.
Category of registered unemployed receiving company supplement
Unemployment benefits capped from 1/09/2017 at:
if the 1st benefit claim was submitted as from 1 September 2017
€ 1,321.32/month or € 50.82/day
if the 1st benefit claim was submitted prior to 1 September 2017
The workers who receive the maximum amount of € 1,314.82/month (€ 50.57/day) will be entitled to an amount of € 1,321.32/month (€ 50.82 /day) as from 1 September 2017.
Therefore, nothing has to be adjusted for the RCCs who were already ongoing prior to 1 September 2017 having a daily amount of less than € 50.57 EUR (or € 1,314.82 /month).
