Unemployment, Workers' Compensation and Related Help
A range of assistance is available for workers who lose their jobs.
Unemployment Benefits
The federal-state unemployment insurance program pays benefits to eligible workers who are unemployed so that they can meet their financial needs.
Workers’ Compensation
Workers' compensation provides income and medical benefits for workers who are injured or become sick because of their jobs. Death benefits may be provided to surviving spouses and dependent children of workers who are killed on the job.
Employment Help
The U.S. Department of Labor recommends turning to “One-Stop Centers,” a part of the workforce investment system that provides a range of free services such as career assessment and counseling and job training access.
Connect with One-Stop Centers for employment help.
Call the Social Security Administration anytime at 800-772-1213 (TTY for the deaf: 1-800-325-0778). Service representatives are available at those numbers from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. during the workweek.
