The earnings-related daily allowance is also staggered during part-time work. However, the 40-day and 170-day time limits are met more slowly during part-time work.

Example:
Your full daily allowance is €70 per day. You work part-time and receive a daily allowance of €35 per day for the time you work. It takes 80 days to meet the 40-day time limit for staggering.

Where a deduction is made from the daily allowance on the basis of the earnings from part-time work and staggering of allowances at the same time, the deduction to the staggering is made before the deduction on earnings from work. You can estimate the amount of your daily allowance after deductions from the staggering of your allowance and your salary using this daily allowance calculator on the website of the federation on unemployment funds in Finland.

Example:
Your full daily allowance is €70 per day. You have been receiving your daily allowance for so long that the level is reduced due to staggering. You have been receiving a daily subsistence allowance of € 56 per day for a period of 70 days. You receive an income of €430 per month. The daily reduction in earned income is €10. The level of the daily allowance will be €46.
