Unemployed people who do not have the right to the contributory benefit or unemployment subsidy due to failing to meet requirements, there is the possibility of requesting the Active Insertion Income (RAI).

This non-contributory benefit, which can be requested from the State Public Employment Service (SEPE), is subject to compliance with a series of requirements, as explained by the public administration on its website.
