Expand Unemployment Insurance for People Out of Work
Workers deserve economic security between jobs. Yet exclusionary and under-resourced unemployment insurance systems leave jobseekers struggling to get by.
MODULE 01
What is App/Digital Platform Work?
When workers lose their jobs, unemployment insurance (UI) should sustain them until they can find new employment. At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, tens of millions of jobless workers relied on UI benefits to make ends meet, supporting both their families and the nation’s economy until it could thrive again. The devastation of severe job losses made it clear that state and federal governments need to strengthen our unemployment insurance (UI) systems before a crisis hits, not undermine them further.
In many states, people who lose their jobs are unlikely to qualify for UI because policymakers created rules that exclude them. The majority of unemployed workers do not receive any UI benefits. Workers who do receive UI typically receive benefits that are too low to adequately support them and their families, and benefits are often cut off before workers can find new jobs.
UI should act as a bridge so that anyone who is out of work can sustain themselves as they seek a new job. When it works well, it supports the economy as a whole and allows job seekers to keep their housing and pay for necessities—including transportation to job interviews.
