The Self-Employed Persons’ Pensions Act (YEL) was renewed – we are reviewing YEL income together with the self-employed

The renewed YEL act took effect at the start of 2023. As a result, we will review the YEL income of the self-employed every three years. The purpose is to ensure that entrepreneurs receive the pension and social security they earn from their work.

Why are we reviewing your YEL income?

The amended YEL act entered into force on 1 January 2023. As a result of the amended act, we are obligated to regularly review your YEL income to ensure that it is at the recommended level and corresponds to the monetary value of your work input.

As a self-employed person, your pension and other social security are based on your YEL income. We want to help you take good care of your pension and social security.

You can see your current YEL income in our online service.
