Abstract

To solve the examined case of unemployment benefit for a part-time worker, that has also worked as full time worker, and calculation of percentage of partial benefit, must be applied Article 211.3 LGSS as modified by RD-L 3/2004, of 25 June, that states that the calculation of rate of partiality is obtained by taking into consideration IPREM "according to hours really worked". It must not be applied Article 211.3 LGSS as modified by RD-L 20/2012, of 13 July, only in force since 15 July 2012.
