About us
TYJ develops unemployment security and provides services for unemployment funds
There are 14 unemployment funds in Finland that pay their members earnings-related unemployment protection during periods of unemployment. The Federation of Unemployment Funds in Finland (TYJ) is the training and cooperation body for the Finnish unemployment funds.
We promote the interests of our member funds, work to develop unemployment security, and seek to strengthen the operation and knowhow of the funds.
Our operation is steered by a board of directors representing our member funds. Our services are delivered by our own seven-person team and a number of working groups formed by fund representatives.

If you have any questions about your benefits, please consult your own unemployment fund.
