2 weeks in between two jobs
Dear Xpats, need your advice. I did some research, but am still unsure what to do in this situation. I am finishing one job end this month and start another one on Aug 15th. I decided to have 2 weeks in between two jobs. Obviously, I do not want to claim unemployment benefits. Do I need to go to the unions(I am with ABVV) to register as unemployed for 2 weeks? Want to avoid any future discussions about social security etc. Many thanks in advance!!!
Perhaps it has been suggested, you could use some of your holiday day's up.
On a side note :
There are two types of unempolyed.
Chomage (paid unemployment) and the other is I think its called Chomage Libre (Unpaid employed ie : the have the status of unemployed but are not paid by the state).
However I don't belive that either would apply in your case. (as you suggested)
I would go to your Union at any rate they will be able to advise you the best.
