INPS Naspi eligibility for victims of violence
Overview
The Italian Institute of Social Security (INPS) has clarified the eligibility criteria for the Naspi unemployment benefit regarding employees who resign due to violence, threats, or harassment.
Under these guidelines, resignations resulting from persecutory conduct, stalking, or gender violence may be classified as having ‘just cause.’ This classification treats the resignation as involuntary unemployment, similar to a dismissal, allowing claimants to receive the full benefit without penalties.
To qualify, applicants must provide documented evidence showing that the violence or harassment made continued employment impossible. This includes instances where the aggressor is outside the workplace, provided there is a clear functional link to the job. The INPS noted that each case is assessed individually to ensure the circumstances meet legal criteria, aligning with previous Constitutional Court rulings regarding external circumstances that prevent workers from performing their duties.
