註釋The unemploy. insur. (UI) program provides a weekly benefit to qualified workers who lose their job and are seeking work. The amount of that benefit is based on a worker¿s past earnings. The composition of the worker¿s family and the income of the family as a whole are not taken into account. This report examined the role of UI benefits in supporting the income of families in which at least one person was unemployed at some point in 2009. The analysis addressed how that role varied with the amount of family income and the number of weeks of unemployment for all family members. Without the financial support provided to families by UI benefits, the poverty rate would have been higher in 2009 than they actually were. Illustrations. This is a print on demand report.
