The Federal and New York State Unemployment Insurance program pays benefits to eligible workers who are unemployed so that they can meet their financial needs. Unemployment Insurance is temporary income for workers that have lost their employment through no fault of their own and who are ready, willing, able to work and have sufficient work and wages in covered employment. It is the Department of Labor that determines whether an unemployed worker qualifies for unemployment insurance.
