Social trygghet och förmåner When you are working and paying taxes in Norway, you will automatically become a part of the National insurance scheme which is run using the funds from social security contributions. The amount of contributions is determined by the Government. You will either get a Norwegian social security number or a D-number (temporary number) when you arrive in Norway — which one you get depends on the amount of time you plan to stay in the country. The social security number is a personal identification number and is a 11-digit number. This number is used to prove your identity to public authorities and other official parties in Norway. Even the D-numbers have 11 digits. For access to services in this country like opening a bank account, you must have a social security or D-number. A Social Security Number will be assigned to someone who stays in Norway (i.e. living for more than six months). When you plan to live here for six months or less you'll be assigned a D-number. Benefits of social security: You will get access to a range of benefits that include:

• familjeförmåner;
• Förmåner för graviditet, födelse och adoption
• Vårdtjänster
• Sjukvårdstjänster
• Sjukpenning
• Arbetsskade- och sjukersättning
• Handikappersättning
• Arbetsprövningsersättning
• Ålderspension
• Ekonomiskt bistånd och tilläggsbidrag
• A-kassa

Arbetslöshetsersättning

When you start working and residing in Norway, you are automatically covered against unemployment through membership in the National Insurance Scheme. If you lose your job, you can be eligible for unemployment payments.  During a layoff, you are temporarily relieved of your need to report to work, while your employer is relieved of the obligation to pay your wages. However, the employee-employer connection remains intact, and the layoff is presumed to be temporary. The employee must be given notice if the position is not temporary. A layoff must always be based on factual reasons related to the organization, not the employee.

 

Sjukpenning

If you have worked in Norway for four weeks and are unable to work due to illness or accident, you are normally eligible to sickness benefits. In general, illness benefits are available for up to a year. With a personal declaration or a sick leave certificate, you must be able to prove why you are unable to work. A personal statement can be used to alert an employer of an employee's illness. Benefits for sickness can be paid for up to a year. If you are on long-term sick leave, however, your employer, doctors, and NAV will monitor you to ensure that you return to work as soon as possible. If you are an employee, your employer is in charge of keeping an eye on you and devising a strategy to get you back to work. NAV is accountable for this if you do not have an employment. If you are still unable to work after a year, you may be eligible for benefits such as a work assessment allowance or disability compensation. You may be eligible for social security payments if you become ill or injured as a result of working conditions and now have an approved occupational injury. The employer must report the accident to NAV within one year of the date of the injury. With numerous social security benefits and an emphasis on work-life balance, Norway is an attractive destination for those looking at an overseas career.
