unemployment compensation
Payments for jobless
Unemployment compensation is money paid by the government to workers who have lost their jobs, typically funded through employer taxes and administered by state agencies.
Recipients must usually demonstrate they were laid off rather than fired for cause, and must actively seek new employment.
Also called unemployment insurance or, informally, unemployment: She's collecting unemployment until she finds a new job.
