    Description

    In July 2024, 3.16 billion U.S. dollars were paid out in unemployment benefits in the United States. This is an increase from June 2024, when 2.62 billion U.S. dollars were paid in unemployment benefits. The large figures seen in 2020 are largely due to the impact of the coronavirus pandemic. Welfare in the U.S. Unemployment benefits first started in 1935 during the Great Depression as a part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal. The Social Security Act of 1935 ensured that Americans would not fall deeper into poverty. The United States was the only developed nation in the world at the time that did not offer any welfare benefits. This program created unemployment benefits, Medicare and Medicaid, and maternal and child welfare. The only major welfare program that the United States currently lacks is a paid maternity leave policy. Currently, the United States only offers 12 unpaid weeks of leave, under certain circumstances. However, the number of people without health insurance in the United States has greatly decreased since 2010. Unemployment benefits Current unemployment benefits in the United States vary from state to state due to unemployment being funded by both the state and the federal government. The average duration of people collecting unemployment benefits in the United States has fluctuated since January 2020, from as little as 4.55 weeks to as many as 50.32 weeks. The unemployment rate varies by ethnicity, gender, and education levels. For example, those aged 16 to 24 have faced the highest unemployment rates since 1990 during the pandemic. In February 2023, the Las Vegas-Henderson-Paradise, NV metropolitan area had the highest unemployment rate in the United States.

    Unemployment Insurance Weekly Claims Data - 2020 year to date (Updated thru 04/25/2020)

    This map contain Unemployment Insurance Weekly Claims data, from the United State Department of Labor, Employment & Training Administration, starting on 01/01/2020 and updated weekly. These data are used in current economic analysis of unemployment trends in the nation, and in each state.

    Initial claims is a measure of emerging unemployment. It counts the number of new persons claiming unemployment benefits and it is released after one week.

    Continued claims is a measure of the total number of persons claiming unemployment benefits, and it is released one week later than the initial claims.

    The data is organized by state, with the following attributes (as defined by the United State Department of Labor) repeated for each week
    • Week/date when claims were filed
    • Number of initial claims
    • Week/date reflected in the data week
    • Number of continued claims
    • Total covered employment
    • Insured unemployment rate
    The latest information on unemployment insurance claims can be found here.

    TECHNICAL NOTES
    These data represent the weekly unemployment insurance (UI) claims reported by each state's unemployment insurance program offices. These claims may be used for monitoring workload volume, assessing state program operations and for assessing labor market conditions. States initially report claims directly taken by the state liable for the benefit payments, regardless of where the claimant who filed the claim resided. These are the basis for the advance initial claims and continued claims reported each week. These data come from ETA 538, Advance Weekly Initial and Continued Claims Report. The following week initial claims and continued claims are revised based on a second reporting by states that reflect the claimants by state of residence. These data come from the ETA 539, Weekly Claims and Extended Benefits Trigger Data Report.

    A. Initial Claims
    An initial claim is a claim filed by an unemployed individual after a separation from an employer. The claimant requests a determination of basic eligibility for the UI program. When an initial claim is filed with a state, certain programmatic activities take place and these result in activity counts including the count of initial claims. The count of U.S. initial claims for unemployment insurance is a leading economic indicator because it is an indication of emerging labor market conditions in the country. However, these are weekly administrative data which are difficult to seasonally adjust, making the series subject to some volatility.

    B. Continued Weeks Claimed
    A person who has already filed an initial claim and who has experienced a week of unemployment then files a continued claim to claim benefits for that week of unemployment. Continued claims are also referred to as insured unemployment. The count of U.S. continued weeks claimed is also a good indicator of labor market conditions. Continued claims reflect the current number of insured unemployed workers filing for UI benefits in the nation. While continued claims are not a leading indicator (they roughly coincide with economic cycles at their peaks and lag at cycle troughs), they provide confirming evidence of the direction of the U.S. economy

    C. Seasonal Adjustments and Annual Revisions
    Over the course of a year, the weekly changes in the levels of initial claims and continued claims undergo regularly occurring fluctuations. These fluctuations may result from seasonal changes in weather, major holidays, the opening and closing of schools, or other similar events. Because these seasonal events follow a more or less regular pattern each year, their influence on the level of a series can be tempered by adjusting for regular seasonal variation. These adjustments make trend and cycle developments easier to spot. At the beginning of each calendar year, the Bureau of Labor Statistics provides the Employment and Training Administration (ETA) with a set of seasonal factors to apply to the unadjusted data during that year. Concurrent with the implementation and release of the new seasonal factors, ETA incorporates revisions to the UI claims historical series caused by updates to the unadjusted data.

    Description

    This table contains monthly and yearly figures on the labour participation and unemployment in the Netherlands. The population of 15 to 75 years old (excluding the institutionalized population) is divided into the employed, the unemployed and the people who are not in in the labour force. The different groups are further broken down by sex and age. Next to the original monthly figures on the labour force you can also find monthly figures that are seasonally adjusted.

    Data available from: January 2003

    Status of the figures: The figures in this table are final.

    Changes as of 20 September 2018: The figures of August 2018 have been added.

    Changes as of 21 January 2016: Statistics Netherlands (CBS) uses model-based estimates to calculate monthly labour force data. In order to reduce the margins on month-on-month changes, the unemployment benefits was incorporated in the unemployment model as an additional source of information. Following the adoption of the Work and Security Act (Wwz), a new classification method on the basis of income adjustment was introduced in July 2015, which structurally increased the number of current unemployment benefits. As a result, this information is no longer suitable for the mentioned model and from November 2015 onwards these data are no longer referred to. Therefore, labour force figures for November 2015 have been adjusted. The figures on December 2015 and the year 2015 have been added.

    When will new figures be published? New figures on the most recent month are published monthly, in the third week of the month.

    Description

    Unemployment benefits in Russia ranged from 1,613 Russian rubles to 13,751 Russian rubles in 2024, having increased from the previous year. In 2025, the maximum rate was increased to 14,742 Russian rubles, while the minimum rate would remain at the same level. Who is entitled to receive unemployment benefits in Russia? To receive unemployment benefits, Russian citizens had to register as unemployed at the job center. Different rates applied depending on the duration of the previous occupation, the reason for unemployment, and other factors. For example, those who worked for the same employer for at least 26 weeks and registered at the employment office within a year received three quarters of their monthly pay (as long as that did not exceed than the maximum rate) in the first three months. In the following three months, the rate was 60 percent of the monthly pay, or up to 5,000 Russian rubles. Those who had been unemployed for over a year or were dismissed from their previous job were assigned the minimum rate. Changes in unemployment benefits due to COVID-19 in Russia As the unemployment rate in Russia increased in the spring and summer of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the country's government adjusted unemployment benefits. In April 2020, the highest possible value of payments was raised from 8,000 Russian rubles to 12,130 Russian rubles until the end of the year and later extended until 2021. From May to August 2020, the minimum payment was increased to 4,500 Russian rubles. Further changes were made for specific population groups, such as parents and individual entrepreneurs.

    Description

    The Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) Program is a Federal-State cooperative program between the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) and the California EDD’s Labor Market Information Division (LMID). The QCEW program produces a comprehensive tabulation of employment and wage information for workers covered by California Unemployment Insurance (UI) laws and Federal workers covered by the Unemployment Compensation for Federal Employees (UCFE) program. The QCEW program serves as a near census of monthly employment and quarterly wage information by 6-digit industry codes from the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) at the national, state, and county levels. At the national level, the QCEW program publishes employment and wage data for nearly every NAICS industry. At the state and local area level, the QCEW program publishes employment and wage data down to the 6-digit NAICS industry level, if disclosure restrictions are met. In accordance with the BLS policy, data provided to the Bureau in confidence are used only for specified statistical purposes and are not published. The BLS withholds publication of Unemployment Insurance law-covered employment and wage data for any industry level when necessary to protect the identity of cooperating employers. Data from the QCEW program serve as an important input to many BLS programs. The Current Employment Statistics and the Occupational Employment Statistics programs use the QCEW data as the benchmark source for employment. The UI administrative records collected under the QCEW program serve as a sampling frame for the BLS establishment surveys. In addition, the data serve as an input to other federal and state programs. The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) of the Department of Commerce uses the QCEW data as the base for developing the wage and salary component of personal income. The U.S. Department of Labor’s Employment and Training Administration (ETA) and California's EDD use the QCEW data to administer the Unemployment Insurance program. The QCEW data accurately reflect the extent of coverage of California’s UI laws and are used to measure UI revenues; national, state and local area employment; and total and UI taxable wage trends. The U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes new QCEW data in its County Employment and Wages news release on a quarterly basis. The BLS also publishes a subset of its quarterly data through the Create Customized Tables system, and full quarterly industry detail data at all geographic levels.

    Description

    In November 2024, the unemployment rate in Russia exceeded two percent, having stayed on the same level as in the previous month. By comparison, 3.7 percent of the workforce aged 15 years and older nationwide were unemployed in the corresponding period two years prior. In 2022, the annual unemployment rate in Russia was measured at approximately 3.2 percent. Causes of unemployment in Russia The country’s labor market situation deteriorated in the summer of 2020 due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The number of jobs contributed by the travel and tourism industry decreased from 3.3 million to 3 million between 2019 and 2022, though the figures started to recuperate again in 2023. Furthermore, Russia has witnessed an exodus of companies due to the invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Leading international companies like McDonald’s, Renault Group, and PepsiCo suspended their operations in the country, thus putting thousands of employees in Russia at risk of unemployment. Russia’s unemployment in global perspective Russia’s unemployment rate is lower than in most other G20 countries. This is largely due to a low fertility rate in the 1990s which has resulted in a demographic dip and left the country with fewer young workers actively seeking employment. Moreover, Russia’s weak social protection, as expressed by unemployment benefits lower than in most European countries, encourages people to find a new job rapidly. An estimated 30 million Russians were not officially registered as unemployed by working in the shadow economy as of 2021.

Description

In July 2024, 3.16 billion U.S. dollars were paid out in unemployment benefits in the United States. This is an increase from June 2024, when 2.62 billion U.S. dollars were paid in unemployment benefits. The large figures seen in 2020 are largely due to the impact of the coronavirus pandemic. Welfare in the U.S. Unemployment benefits first started in 1935 during the Great Depression as a part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal. The Social Security Act of 1935 ensured that Americans would not fall deeper into poverty. The United States was the only developed nation in the world at the time that did not offer any welfare benefits. This program created unemployment benefits, Medicare and Medicaid, and maternal and child welfare. The only major welfare program that the United States currently lacks is a paid maternity leave policy. Currently, the United States only offers 12 unpaid weeks of leave, under certain circumstances. However, the number of people without health insurance in the United States has greatly decreased since 2010. Unemployment benefits Current unemployment benefits in the United States vary from state to state due to unemployment being funded by both the state and the federal government. The average duration of people collecting unemployment benefits in the United States has fluctuated since January 2020, from as little as 4.55 weeks to as many as 50.32 weeks. The unemployment rate varies by ethnicity, gender, and education levels. For example, those aged 16 to 24 have faced the highest unemployment rates since 1990 during the pandemic. In February 2023, the Las Vegas-Henderson-Paradise, NV metropolitan area had the highest unemployment rate in the United States.
