Arbeitslosengeld

Arbeitslosengeld, or unemployment benefit, is a financial support provided by the German government to individuals who have lost their job and are actively seeking new employment. It is designed to help cover living expenses during the period of unemployment. The amount and duration of benefits depend on factors such as previous earnings, contribution history, and the individual's age. To qualify, applicants typically must have worked for a certain period and contributed to the unemployment insurance system. This benefit is part of Germany's social safety net, aimed at easing the economic impact of job loss.
