This calculator estimates the prestación contributiva por desempleo, the "paro" paid by SEPE, from the General Social Security Law and SEPE's 2026 amounts.
Minimum and maximum. The law sets them as a percentage of the IPREM (600 euros in 2026) increased by a sixth: at least 560 euros a month without children and 749 with children; at most 1,225 euros without children, 1,400 with one and 1,575 with two or more.
What is deducted. SEPE pays the employer's contributions and deducts the worker's share, 4.85% of the base reguladora in 2026. IRPF may also be withheld.

SEPE pays 70% of your base reguladora for the first 180 days and 60% afterwards. The base reguladora is the average contribution base of your last 180 days, so a steady 24,000 euro salary gives 2,000 euros a month: 1,400 euros at 70%, capped at 1,225 euros without children, then 1,200.06 euros.
With the IPREM at 600 euros a month, the minimum is 560 euros without children and 749 euros with at least one child. The maximum is 1,225 euros without children, 1,400 euros with one child and 1,575 euros with two or more. All are monthly amounts for full-time work.
Duration depends on the days contributed for unemployment in the last six years. From 360 to 539 days you get 120 days of benefit; every further 180 days adds 60 days, up to the maximum of 720 days, two years, from 2,160 days contributed. Contributions already used for a previous benefit do not count again.
SEPE pays the employer part of your Social Security contributions and deducts the worker's share from the benefit, which SEPE lists as 4.85% in 2026, applied to the base reguladora. IRPF can also be withheld depending on the yearly amount. On a 2,000 euro base the Social Security deduction is about 97 euros a month.
