About the job

Do you have experience with the payment of sickness benefits and the resource pathway allowance, and are you driven by ensuring that citizens and employers receive the correct benefit at the right time? Then you now have the opportunity to become part of our professionally strong and engaged team.

About the job

In the Benefits Team we handle calculation and payment of sickness benefits and the resource pathway allowance, reimbursement to employers, and administration of §§ 56- and 58 a agreements.

At the same time, we are an important part of the Center for Labor Market and Youths focus on early intervention. We believe that fast and correct handling of benefits helps create the best conditions for citizens to maintain their connection to the labor market. Therefore, we work closely with the sickness benefit team’s advisers and other departments to support a cohesive effort for citizens and employers.

The benefits employee is an important co-player in the early efforts, because quick and correct benefit decisions are a significant part of the overall effort for those on sick leave.
