Utkomststödets grunddel sänktes för över 5 700 stödtagare i april – nästan 12 000 undvek en sänkning28.5.2026 06:00:00 EEST | Pressmeddelande

Det grundläggande utkomststödets grunddel sänktes för sammanlagt 5 700 mottagare i april 2026. En av de mest betydande följderna av den lagändring som trädde i kraft i februari är att man har lyckats hänvisa de kunder som lever enbart på utkomststöd till att anmäla sig som sökande av heltidsarbete och ansöka om förmåner som är primära i förhållande till utkomststödet. En annan viktig följd är att sänkningarna är större än tidigare – nästan alla uppgår till 50 procent.

Toimeentulotuen perusosaa alennettiin huhtikuussa yli 5 700 tuensaajalta – lähes 12 000 asiakasta välttyi tuen alentamiselta28.5.2026 06:00:00 EEST | Tiedote

Läs meddelandet på svenska (fpa.fi). Perustoimeentulotuen perusosaa alennettiin yhteensä 5 700 saajalta huhtikuussa 2026. Helmikuussa voimaan tulleen lainmuutoksen merkittävimpiä seurauksia on se, että toimeentulotuen varassa olevia asiakkaita on onnistuttu ohjaamaan kokoaikatyön hakijoiksi ja toimeentulotukeen nähden ensisijaisille tuille. Toinen keskeinen seuraus on se, että alentamiset ovat aiempaa suurempia: lähes kaikilla 50 prosenttia.
