Switching from another professional organisation or unemployment fund will not interrupt or endanger your unemployment security, as long as you join Suomen Ekonomit and the KOKO unemployment fund within one month of resigning from your previous fund. You can join KOKO while you are in paid employment. Changing funds is not possible, for example, during unemployment, layoff or parental leave.

Here’s what to do:

Fill in and submit the membership application and under the unemployment fund section, choose “I want to join the KOKO fund, I’m transferring from another unemployment fund and will terminate my previous fund membership myself.”

Wait for our confirmation that your membership has been approved. After that, you can terminate your membership in your old union and fund. Membership fees for the period of membership must, of course, be paid.

If you are already a KOKO member through another union or as a direct member

Your KOKO membership will continue without interruption when you join Suomen Ekonomit and, in the unemployment fund section of the application, choose “I’m a direct member of KOKO and will transfer my membership to Suomen Ekonomit starting from the beginning of next year. I will terminate my direct membership myself.”

Once you’ve received confirmation of your membership, you can terminate your membership in your previous union and the unemployment fund through it.

The KOKO unemployment fund is only for employees. As an entrepreneur, you can join an entrepreneur fund.

You can join as a student member as soon as your right to study is valid.

If you have subscribed to the membership magazine before, it will remain as part of your membership automatically. In other words, you do not need to take any action if you want to keep the magazine subscription. If you want to discontinue the subscription, please remove it through the member service.  

If you would like to remove the magazine subscription, please make the change through the member service. 

If your membership includes the magazine subscription provided as a membership benefit, you can change the specific magazine at any time through the member service.  

If you experience any issues with making the desired changes, you can contact customer service.

Unfortunately, you cannot deduct the price of the magazine subscription from your membership fee yourself. Please make the necessary change through the member service. You will then be sent a new invoice by post or through your online banking service. Pay this new invoice. This will void the previous invoice, which means that you do not need to pay it.
