Pôle emploi Monthly Update

Unless you declare that you are still looking for a job, the resumption of a professional activity will result in the termination of your registration on the list of job seekers.

In this case, you will be reclassified into a category of job seekers not immediately available for employment.

You are considered to be back in business in the following 2 cases:

• Resumption of a professional activity of more than 78 hours per month
• Creating or resuming a company with or without assistance to unemployed persons creating or resuming company

If you get a disability pension of 2¹ or 3¹ category, you are required to report this amount to Pôle emploi. The person competent for the determination of incompetence shall be the occupational physician or the occupational physician.

The director of the Pôle emploi agency must seek the opinion of the labour doctor to check the suitability for work of the person concerned.

• If the doctor finds that he or she is unable to work, it is not possible to maintain the registration on the list of job seekers.
• If the ability to work is recognised, it is possible to maintain your registration on the list of job seekers.

If you are a foreigner job applicant and your residence permit is no longer valid, you cease to be on the list of job seekers.

You must therefore submit the renewal of your title after each expiry. A reminder letter is sent to you 30 days before the expiry date of the residence permit.

Reporting one of the following events results in your temporary reclassification into a category of job seekers not immediately available:

• Participation in a training action, whether paid or not, of more than 40 hours
• Work stoppage for sickness or work accident of more than 15 days
• Maternity leave
• Absence of habitual residence more than 35 days per year
• Imprisonment for more than 15 days

These events may result in the temporary suspension of your unemployment benefits.
