Unionens a-kassa: personal answers in a rulebook that demands precision.

Unionens a-kassa is an independent Swedish unemployment insurance fund — not part of the Unionen trade union — with members across many industries. When someone loses their job, the questions are urgent, personal and governed by rules.

The challenge

Urgent cases inside a complex rulebook.

Am I entitled to compensation? How much will I get? Where is my payout? The answers depend on the member's individual situation — and wrong answers have real consequences for the individual.

At the same time, contact volumes spike exactly when the economy turns and case officers are already at full capacity.

Rule-bound answers
Generic replies are not enough — it concerns the member's own case.
Sensitive data
Personal information demands the highest security level.
Volume spikes
Unemployment hits contact volumes fast.

The solution

An assistant with BankID and cited answers.

The assistant guides visitors and members through the rulebook with answers grounded in the fund's own material, always with a reference to the applicable source.

Members log in with BankID and get answers about their own situation — application status, upcoming payouts, missing information — and are guided through strict guided flows where the process must be followed exactly.
