Unemployment Insurance

Unemployment insurance (UI) programs provide financial assistance to eligible workers who lose their jobs through no fault of their own, as long as they meet specific eligibility criteria. Unemployment insurance is a joint state-federal program. Each state administers a separate unemployment insurance program, but all states follow the same guidelines established by federal law.
