he fund covers all the employees of ABB Oy, excluding salaried employees, who receive their main source of income from ABB Oy and are not insured under any other insurance or health insurance fund, as well as the salaried employees of this insurance fund.
Employees whose employment is intended to be temporary or of short duration (less than five months) are not covered by the fund.
It is the responsibility of the fund’s board to establish that the conditions of the insurance relationship have been met.
The fund’s insurance is compulsory for everyone within its scope. The insurance relationship is valid from the moment the premium is collected.
Employees with a fixed-term contract become covered by the fund if the employment relationship is known to continue for more than five months.
Employees receiving a part-time pension or partial disability pension also meet the conditions for an insurance relationship, provided that they derive their main income from paid employment.
The conditions of the insurance relationship are not met by employees on full-time rehabilitation subsidy or workers’ compensation pension, for example, even if the employment relationship with ABB Oy is still in force.
The premium for the insurance fund is 1.4% of the wages, partial disability pension and part-time pension subject to the Prepayment Act.
At the start of the insurance relationship, the insured person is sent a new Kela card with the words “Työpaikkakassa 12705” [employer’s fund 12705] on the back.
The fund has signed direct reimbursement agreements with several pharmacies and clinics.
You must present your Kela card when visiting any of these contract pharmacies or clinics.
