unemployment insurance (UI)

Read a random definition: squalor morbi

A quick definition of unemployment insurance (UI):

Unemployment insurance (UI) is a program that helps people who have lost their jobs. The government gives money to states to help them run the program, and employers get a tax credit for paying into it. Each state can make their own rules for who can get unemployment benefits, but they have to follow some basic rules set by the federal government. To get benefits, people have to show that they are looking for work and don't have a job right now. This program is meant to help people who lost their job through no fault of their own.

A more thorough explanation:

Unemployment insurance is a system where the government gives money to people who have lost their jobs and are actively looking for work. This money helps them pay for basic needs like food, housing, and bills while they search for a new job.

Each state has its own unemployment insurance program, but they must follow certain rules set by the federal government to receive funding. Employers also pay taxes that go towards funding the program.

To qualify for unemployment benefits, a person must register as unemployed and show that they are actively looking for work. The goal is to help people who have lost their jobs through no fault of their own and encourage them to find new employment.

For example, if someone is laid off from their job due to a company downsizing, they may be eligible for unemployment benefits. They would need to register as unemployed and show that they are actively searching for a new job.

Another example would be if someone quits their job without a good reason, they would not be eligible for unemployment benefits. The program is designed to help those who have lost their jobs through no fault of their own.
