Unemployment Insurance Benefits |

| Description: |
Unemployment insurance is a State of Illinois-operated insurance program designed to partially compensate you for loss of wages when you are out of work. Like fire, accident, health and other types of insurance, it is for an emergency: when you are temporarily or permanently out of a job or if you work less than full time because of lack of work. |
