NASpI (unemployment benefit)

Unemployment benefit for people who have lost their job through no choice of their own.

What it is

NASpI is the unemployment benefit for people who have lost their job involuntarily.

It is paid monthly by INPS (Italy's social security institute) and supports your income while you look for a new job.

How we help
