Strike pay

• Strike pay is paid to members of PAM and other trade unions participating in a strike who do work covered by the strike at a strike location. Strike pay is for paying union members only, not student or pensioner members.  NOTE! YTK is not a trade union, therefore YTK members cannot apply for strike pay. 
• You are entitled to strike pay when you have joined PAM no later than on the first day of a strike. You can join using the online membership form or by calling 030 100 630.
• Strike pay is paid to members who would have had a shift of at least 4 hours at the time of the strike and who suffer loss of earnings as a result. 
• Strike pay is claimed using the electronic form above. 

The strike pay for SeriousGrounds strikes is 60 euros (46.80 euros net). 

Strike pay is always paid for a strike day for which there has been loss of earnings. Strike pay is tax-free up to €16, after which tax is withheld. 

Strike pay is usually paid out within two weeks after you have completed the form. 

You don’t need to register for the strike in advance. Applying for strike pay is confirmation that you took part in the strike. 

You can apply for strike pay beginning on Friday after the strike using an online form.

Please send your application as soon as possible. Submit your application no later than 28 December 2023.

You need the following information to fill in the strike pay form: 
•    your personal identity code 
•    your address 
•    your account number (in IBAN form) 
•    your workplace details. 

You don’t need to send your tax card to PAM. Strike pay is paid for the day of the strike.
