Reserve Service

The National Insurance Institute pays a reserve service benefit to any person who is called up for reserve duty under the Security Service Law, as well as to anyone called up for training under the Emergency Labor Service Law. The National Insurance Institute also provides grants to working youths up to the age of 18 who are absent from their jobs due to participation in pre-military education.
The National Insurance Institute notifies every insured person and employer regarding the amount of the benefit paid.

Following legislative change, benefits will be raised for reservists in service. For more information, click here.

Dear reservists, it is important to know! You will be able to receive information about the amounts paid to you or to your employer for reserve service on your Personal Service account, thus allowing you to check whether you have effectively received what you are due.
