Family Employments that Are Covered for Social Insurance (PRSI)

Leaflet Sections

The following categories of 'Family Employment' are insurable under the Social Insurance system in exactly the same way as employments that have no family connection:

  • If you are employed as an employee by a 'prescribed relative'* and the employment is not related to a private dwelling house or a farm in or on which both you and the employer reside (PRSI Class A or Class J applies).
  • If you are employed as an Apprentice by a 'prescribed relative'* ( even if the apprenticeship employment does relate to a private dwelling house or a farm in or on which both you and the employer resides ). There must be a registered Contract of Apprenticeship involved (PRSI Class A or Class J applies).

* A 'Prescribed relative' is a parent, grandparent, stepparent, son, daughter, grandson, granddaughter, stepson, stepdaughter, brother, sister, half-brother, or half-sister.
