Jobless Benefits
Jobless benefits, also known as unemployment benefits, are financial payments provided by the government to individuals who have lost their jobs through no fault of their own. These benefits help support individuals while they search for new employment. The amount and duration of benefits vary by region and are typically funded through taxes paid by employers. To qualify, applicants usually need to meet certain criteria, such as having a work history and actively seeking a new job. The goal of jobless benefits is to provide temporary financial relief and stability during periods of unemployment.
